Public Ownership of Scotland’s Railway

20th September 2014 | News / Petition

Following the Referendum on Scottish Independence, Bring Back British Rail and its sister organisation Power For the People are launching two new campaigns for the Public Ownership of Scotland’s essential services and infrastructure with 38 Degrees:

Gordon Brown announced today, that the ‘new powers’ promised by the UK Government, will mean there can be “no enforced rail privatisation against the will of the people of Scotland”. Transport profiteers First Group’s franchise agreement comes to an end on 31 March 2015 and we shall demand that the Scottish Government reverses the injustices caused by privatisation and takes ScotRail back into Public Ownership now!

Public Ownership in Scotland could be the ‘easy win’, which would pave the way for the other parts of the UK to follow suit.

The Public Ownership of Scotland’s Railway campaign is supported by:
