Did you know that the UK Government is now consulting on the biggest legislative changes to our railways since the disastrous Railways Act 1993, which created privatisation? The deadline is this Thursday 4 August, 11:45pm.

They've done their best to keep this consultation hidden - rushing it through in just eight weeks over the summer. But this is a great opportunity to make the case for greater public ownership of rail - enabling direct awards to our publicly-owned operator, which currently runs LNER, Northern and Southeastern - to reduce fragmentation and ensure more of our railways are run in the public interest.

Please take time this week to respond to the consultation. Together with our friends at We Own It we've put together a handy guide.

Please help us make a big impact in the short time left, by sharing details on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram:
