Not so much profits going into the Goverment coffers really as much as our futures....but the Goverment will take on our pension liabilities...at a price.
You coudn't make it up....and they said Maxwell was a thieving bastard.

That old chestnut the PSBR? Public Sector Borrowing Requirement; or perhaps more appropriately Parasites, Spivs, Bandits, Robbers. Amazing that a certain John Roberts gets overshadowed in the haze of the likes of Crozier & Leighton when in fact it was under his watch when the first tenets of what we now rue today were being set in stone. All of that money (profit) that was spunked ('invested') into overseas mail operators and didn't return a penny. Consignia? 'nuff said...
You do the work, they get the loot. The men with the smiles and the 3 piece suits.
