The Tory's know that the only way to stay in power is to nick all the labour and liberal policies.
At least the Tories acted on those policies.

Ah, so get rid of all rail unions then...
Would you stop there or get rid of other unions because in your opinion 'they hold back progress'?
And what is your definition of 'holding back progress' or 'driving conditions and pay that are uneconomical' in other industries/services?
Are the pay of the bosses and their conditions 'economical'?
It's not much good having workers rights, if the jobs have gone overseas. I prefer a market forces approach - pay them the necessary, to retain the best talent.
So a race to the bottom then?It's not much good having workers rights, if the jobs have gone overseas. I prefer a market forces approach - pay them the necessary, to retain the best talent.
The railways were not privatised.
The government merely paid different people to run them.
All so-called profits being a so-called subsidy from the government.
No national railway in the world makes a profit.
Labour policy.
That depends.Is there a problem with a changing of the mind????

But you still haven't answered...

So you're at odds with this statement then?The market rate isn't set by the unions. Same with conditions.
The 'race to the bottom' occurs when employers set all the conditions/pay and employees have no say!They hold back progress and they drive conditions and pay that are uneconomical.
I suspect that unions have other functions as well.The aim of the Union is to maximise the control the employee has over the employer, right down to blocking innovation to replace menial jobs.
