It’s about re-nationalised British Rail. Run transport services for the people who use them, not the directors.
Your Views
James Brown, LlangollenI would favour a re-nationalised rail network that allows easy connections between regions and puts people before profits.
Peter Brewster, St NeotsHaving effectively stolen my share in this national company, the government sold it off to people with enough money to spare, so where is my share? We want it back.
Michael McClean, HamburgAs a proud Brit on the continent, the state and price of UK trains is appalling. Profit for a few and misery for us. No competition and no incentive to improve or reduce prices.
Maya Ring, SomptingThe rail network is a mess. Bring it back to the public. Privatisation has not worked.
Nick Gregory, DeesideWe live in a beautiful country and I want to share it with my kids, but the cost of rail travel is obscene and prohibitive. Let us have our railways back.
