Samuel Geddes, SouthamptonThe right incentives and motives for efficient high performance can be executed from within public hands, not just by the groans of shareholders.
Ben Millis, LondonWe were passengers, then we were customers, now we are parasites. Nationalisation is progress.
Kim Boon, BarnsleyBreaking up railways breaks up communications, so we’re isolated in the north. HS2 won’t make things any better for Barnsley either.
Richard Jarvis, LeicesterTrain fares are just too high. I work for a charity and year-on-year increases in ticket prices wipe out any salary increase I receive.
Sandra Salmons, WestburyI cannot see that privatisation has had any benefits for the travelling public, only to the heads of the companies who now draw off the profits.

Bring Back British Rail is coordinated from Glasgow by Ellie Harrison, with the help of a small network of volunteers around the UK.
The campaign operates as a ‘non-charitable campaigning body’ and so is free to carry out political activity and act as a pressure group.
It aims to be a completely autonomous and transparent passenger-led organisation, which has no direct affiliation with any political parties.
