She wouldn't have got the job if she'd voted any other way.

This. The new pm is a small statist. She has to do something about energy bills because there’s an election coming - not soon enough… - but her instinct is to let the ‘poor suffer as they must’

I don't want control of public transport just a service that works. Doesn't matter who runs it.

Where I lived before both buses and trains worked well,  I'd not n have voted fir an mp in favour of changing that on purely ideological reasons of putting those services into public ownership.

Now where I live there's one or two buses each way per day but there's an excellent train service up until early summer this year. About the time just before the first rail strike I think then it's been oatchy5 ever since.  It she voted to stop rail strikes I'd also support her.  Lol!  :P

It's hardly surprising. If she'd voted for nationalisation, I'd have been surprised.
