Ben Harris-Quinney Royal Mail Privatisation – where is the debate?
Ben Harris-Quinney is Chairman of the Bow Group & Director of Conservative Grassroots.
The 2011 Postal Services Act was passed with little fanfare or debate. The product of a Liberal Democrat Secretary of State following the failed policy of the last Labour Government, it was also our coalition partner that steered that legislation through Parliament.
Since that time there has been little political debate about the merits of privatising Royal Mail. We have gone from an unheralded Act of Parliament to an equally unheralded privatision without fully considering the impact this might have on the postal service itself and on our party, particularly in rural areas.
It is of great importance that the Conservative Party and the Government pause and consider the implications of pushing through privatisation at this time.
