    So, you'd borrow heaps and add to the current multi billion debt.

    Foreign banks or Australian banks ?

    How many mines will you be taking over in the first wave ?

    Will they be owner / operator or contractor ?

    You are nationalising the lease, not the equipment.

    Would you expect to win a Court case over ownership of the equipment if you just locked the gate and didn't allow recovery of owned property ?

    A Contractor could either move their gear and crew to a different mine or decide to work for the Government.

    Would a Labour Government simply hand over control to the CMFEU to run the mine(s) ? Reckon you'll still make a profit ??

    If you now have the mine, how long will it take you to renegotiate contracts for rail to port, ships and customers ?

    What might the new (probably higher) rates be ?

    Would you try to nationalise any privately owned railways and ports too ?

    How will you keep your plans secret ?
