Would this not be the ideal vehicle for a Nationalised Company ?
An old establish company in fact almost an institution, which until recently was completely publically owned.
It has a Banking arm which we know can be turned around to make a profit and as a Government owned company could be used as the standard for Banking Rules and Regulations.
The same could be done with the Insurance arm, which has always been quite a reasonable insurer of choice.
It has Shops, Pharmacies and Farms that have substantial work forces that could be utilised to introduce the type of Apprenticeship Schemes the Government wants introduced throughout the country and so this could again be used as the "Regulation Model"
It has a Nationwide Funeral Service, which could be utilised to perform the increasing numbers of "paupers burials" thus saving money looking and booking local services, that would utilises the existing business giving job security to existing employees and perhaps increasing business and thus lead to job creation.
And one of the most important things is, that it is a trusted Business name that the British people have always supported. It has only been in recent years where bad management and rising prices has forced loyal users and supporters to use other companies/brands.
Everybody would then know that using the Co-op would mean supporting their own investment and should help in making the company successful and profit making again, thus helping Government financies in the long term.
