George Parker, ManchesterPublic ownership is better than private. Just look at the East Coast Mainline for proof.
Joe Corr, Shoreham-by-SeaWith train fares being as high as they are, it’s unlikely I’ll be able to see my college friends over the holidays – £22 from Southwick to Eastbourne.
Diane Madeley, AbergavennyThe tax-paying community is paying substantially for a failed privatised system. Rail communication benefits the whole society and should be re-nationalised to reflect this.
Gloria Percy, DurhamCertain things should not be de-nationalised and BR was definitely one. The East Coast line has been in public hands for a while now and it’s bloody great.
Peter Mcgarley, SunderlandI’m sick of giving all my money to foreign train operators.
