Believe me when it’s nationalised the government won’t be paying NBV for assets that haven’t been maintained or developed. It will be a fire sale with government acquisition at pennies in the Pound.

Why do the banks even allow these companies to rack up debts like these? Money these firms spend on million-pound salaries and bonuses with while allowing critical infrastructure to further decay. The banks profit hugely from supplying dodgy financing, that’s the only possible reason.
