What are the benefits of privatisation? Profits for foreign companies, confusion on focus within the industry, lack of re-investment, and the trains belonging to the bank.
Your Views
Pamela Phelan, WallaseyPublic services such as rail, bus, health etc. should be in public ownership, run on a no-profit basis for the good of the community and not to line the fat cats’ pockets.
Luis Galan Gomez, West MidlandsThe best high speed trains in Europe are in France, Germany and Spain where their rail networks and trains are owned by a public company.
Simon Brandon, LondonI see no reason why fares should rise under privatisation.
Maria Harlan, St. AlbansAnybody travelling around Europe becomes aware how shamefully overpriced British Rail has become. It has nothing to do with a service any more.
Michael Reynolds, Newcastle-upon-TyneSince privatisation, fares have increased on a ridiculous level, and not enough is spent on maintenance. Public ownership will mean the ability to drive fares back down.
