it looks like they're trying to sneak some business contracts through now
so that the next government won't legally be able to pull out of it, which is thoroughly democratic of them.

I don't think it's being done purely to spite another
government. If you had a business, you wouldn't invest in staff and equipment to make & maintain the system if there was a chance the next government would scrap it, would you?

yeah but it's the government that's trying to tie it up,
of course I don't blame the companies so much for going for the business deal.

Of course they are, because no business in its right mind would invest otherwise.

Well, quite.
It's a bit of an awkward state of affairs, though.
