SATIRICAL CARD OF THE MONTH OCTOBER 1998
Sweeping new controls of the privatised rail companies - including powers to take poor performers back into public ownership - are announced by John Prescott.


INSIDE OF CARD

Dear Rail Operators,

Some men a forward motion love,
But I by backward steps would move,
Let all poor performers turn,
Or to the State once more, return.

Yours
Johnny Prescott

O how I long to travel back,
And tread again that ancient track!
Train
That old B.R. once more might reign.
Why! We can nationalise the train!
For now my socialist spirit sees
Those special public sector needs.
