Gordon Brown will tomorrow begin a roup of this nation’s assets. In the middle of a recession he will start to sell of a “portfolio of non-financial assets” held by Whitehall and local authorities over the next two years.
They will include the Tote, Dartford crossing, the student loan book, the Channel Tunnel rail link and – having protected national security – the government’s stake in URENCO.
if, and I repeat if, he gets the true value of the assets he will realise about 16bn pounds enough to fund our deficit for one month.
Then the assets will be lost to the nation forever, bit like all the gold Gordon sold at the bottom of the market.
