Natural monopolies shouldn’t be a cash cow for shareholders’ subsided profits, which cost more in real terms than ever did BR for a worse, more expensive service.
Your Views
Neville Redvers-Higgins, TringThis is an abuse of the original privatisation. Stop this amount of money going from the public sector to private company profits. Bring back British Rail.
David Brown, RothburyPrivatisation is about shareholders’ profits and is not about service to passengers. We want our railways back.

Andree Rodriguez-Veglio, DaventryIt’s nonsense for fragmentation in so small a landmass. We all prefer train travel in a single network.

We'll never get a simplified unified railway if private Open Access operators are allowed to continue running their own services & selling their own tickets🚆 The frustration of only being able to use specific tickets on specific trains will persist 😤 Heidi Alexander must #ScrapOpenAccess now! ...
