Gurmeet Singh, LeedsWe need to save our billions from going to European railway companies and invest in our railways for a better service.
Harald Dahle, AbingdonInfrastructure utilities should be publicly funded and accountable to their users, not to their shareholders.
David Rae, LoughboroughOur railways should be British owned, not German (DB Schenker), French, Dutch, Canadian or American.

Gus Cummins, BristolFor goodness’ sake nationalise the railway, subsidise it, make it affordable and reduce air pollution. Thank you.
