Passengers vs Profiteers – ask your MP whose side they’re on
12th April 2026 | Demonstration / News

The Railways Bill – which will create our new Great British Railways (GBR) – will be debated in the House of Commons again soon at its Report Stage.
We’re working with our friends at We Own It to raise awareness for the key problems with the Bill – and to promote the amendments aimed at resolving them.
Please take two minutes to write to your MP to ask them to back these crucial amendments – and come to the ‘Tug of War’ event in Parliament Square on Wednesday:
