1) a government survey that apparently say 96% of people questioned support privatisation... except it was 96% oppose privatisation
2) one of her strands for supporting privatisation is "Netflix"... but brilliantly she reckoned they needed to improve their business strategy, 'cos 4 other members of her own family around the country share her password, so dur, that's not great for business... before being reminded that wasn't allowed
I do hope she gets her account blocked...The culture secretary, Nadine Dorries, shares her Netflix account with four other households, including her mother’s, she has told MPs, calling the streaming service an “incredibly generous system”.
Dorries argued that the recent share price collapse at Netflix, which is now worth less than a third of its market value at the start of the year, was evidence only of its success.
“I think that [for] people to even try and paint a picture that Netflix … is struggling is slightly over-egging the pudding. But they are going to have to revise their business model,” she told the Commons digital, culture, media and sport committee.
“I’ve always thought it’s [an] incredibly generous system that it has, if you have an account, of allowing other people access. I mean, my mum has access to my account, my kids do. I have Netflix, but there are four other people who can use my Netflix account in different parts of the country.”
Dorries was then apparently told by Sarah Healey, the department’s permanent secretary, that password sharing was not allowed on the service.
