Let's face it, much of our traditional industry is in the hands of other nationalities. Selling off UK companies was encouraged by previous governments (sadly, including Labour)in the interests of globalisation. So now we are in a situation where "foreigners" could cut off our oil, gas, electicity and water, damage our transport system even further and generally bring the UK to a halt.
If a private company can make a profit (and they wouldn't run the company if they couldn't) why can't the state? Possibly because the state would have to pay decent wages which, as far as I can see, is the only way the private company can do it. But then higher wages would give people more to spend, gain the government more tax and help the economy.
