Now I realise that many of you are thholding your pounds ocialist Challenge in anticipation of cking up shares in the industries to denationalised.

1 don't blame you. I too have loed my stockbroker with orders to and by for the coming free-for-all.

le are a quiver with anticipation.

Who'd ever have thought the Tories were dumb-dumb enough to ate their intentions so openly? Well Yes us the upper hand, doesn'tit? 1 they're ideologically commitelling off chunks of the state so if we decide not to offer the gentlemanly price, luch they can do about it. act, I've got an even better et'stell the Tories that we shall further lower the shares represen the risk of onalised by Labour. m their present state of euphoria 1 t think the Tories would notice laws in my argument; one, that our doesn't nationalise protitable tries; two, that if however our itions should prove unprofitALLAR CLAUDES WERE SILE ument to follow tradition by generously for a shareholding that caded stock exchange wouldn't fund-raising.

This level of apport a humiliatine switched the Christian Challenge and touted the evangelical community, you can bet your sweet bippy that we'd reach the target outflanked by mystics; this is doubly humiliatingSo lam going to ask you to make a Big Sacrifice: those pounds that were carmarked for that denationalisation topping spree, give them to u everyone please, or add El to your current order. It will immeasurably boost the paper and educate my children.
