Privatisation has nothing to offer if there is no competition.

If there is no competition possible--and there are so many other situations apart from airport security--then a publicly owned provider is better. There _are_ some things that are a natural monopoly but if there must be a monopoly then it should be a government one.

A private monopoly is the worst of all worlds.
