I think the relevant unions have been caught on the hop over this. It certainly seems born of a lack of joined up thinking.

Not least because most Pension Schemes would suffer huge losses if they were forced to sell an asset at below market value. So their members would suffer a significant financial blow if this was to take place.

And of course - if it ever looked likely - sell off of shares would cause BT share price to collapse over night.

I’m no fan of BT having been subjected to appalling advise from their sales department - but re-nationalising is not the answer.
