Good old thatcherism how many fell for her lies and greed
When our crowded little island needs a credible, reliable alternative to the car, especially in urban areas, we have the shambles of the current rail network. Motorways almost gridlocked daily, it seems almost beyond those tasked to run them, despite all the knowledge and technology, we cannot run a decent network. Let railway men run the railways.
My favourite comment from, I think the chief exec of Southern?? in response to fare rises on top of the massive amount of disruption caused by the timetable fiasco was "We are operating within the parameters of our contract". I'm paraphrasing, but that's near enough.
#barrierjump
People should just start jumping barriers. Fuck all they can do.
We have too many tickets barriers in most stations now while on holiday in Swiss they dnt have ticket barriers ! And my friend told me that there is no ticket barriers in Germany and Prague !
all run for profits & bonuses, not as a transport system. This Govt , the one before it & the one before that have all colluded to make that happen.
Competition was healthy pre grouping(no government funding, foreign nations building rolling stock to our country, infrastructure and leasing) /big 4 era. Gotta admit privatisation is now showing cracks and pricing people off the railway. Bet one day most of the well off people can only afford standard class or travel weekends more rarerly. What if the railways were renationalised, but have ultra high income tax (from the current 45pc to 60pc) and for the super wealthy making railways free all the time and whenever
I hope the oyster fares don't rise much as I use my oyster on rail journeys within greater London.
GTR have no right to put up fares as cuts at my local station Norwood junction is still happening.
Same old whinging every year, slagging off rail and mainly not slagging off the real reasons behind it....inherited from Government policy 25 years ago.
We in this country have a great rail system more investment than there has ever been,every are getting new trains even my area E Anglia, the main problem is that it's run by organisations that only see profit before passengers.
I remember when it was British Railways, apart from all the national strikes, they sometimes ran on time...
If you vote Tory and use a train , then you got what you deserve,
The train companies are happy to take our money especially season tickets but they don’t want to provide the service, and this is so wrong, it’s dishonest. Why don’t they just admit that they’re no longer capable of providing the train services they promised? Northern Trains should have their franchise revoked.
rail companies always blame someone else or something else it's never their fault, give themselves a bad name and they like wondering why it is, stupid
And the same old shit will be. We need the increase to make a safe and reliable service. The tossers.
is it a rumour or have the tax payers ie network rail taken the blame for all cancelled trains and delays on the timetable change and all railway companys will be compinsated fully ?
It's time for a change. We have had eneough of the privatised shambles.
Selfservatives said" more for less". You pay more. You get less.
No worries everything will be wonderful post Brexit

We've got the worst of both worlds - the public purse pays for most of the railway, but the government (and the public) have no control over how it is run.Let's fix that. 🛠️

& 98% of the public will probably never use it so we pay for something we will not use that makes sense it is being built for the rich & the executives to save themselves about 20 minutes travel time let them pay for it if they want it
It took me 6 hours to travel 70 miles from London to Suffolk today. So perhaps sort out existing network before destroying countryside to gain minutes on a journey for people who are already privileged 😡
There is absolutely no justification whatsoever for HS2. And what can we, the people, do about it? Sod all, apparently.
For a country that invented the railway, the lack of good infrastructure is disgraceful. This line should have been built 30 years ago. Electrification has been stalled with the need for new trains to be dual powered thereby increasing weight and unreliability. Absolutely pathetic.
This would cut through, I mean destroy, some of the most Beautiful Countryside in Britain, and for what?
Grrrr! Spread the money throughout the regions to improve rail travel for everyone.
Reopen the Great central railway south section of 72 miles or so would solve some problems
Scrap hs2. Put the money into rolling stock on existing networks. 8 carriages not 2.. pay the guards out of it
It's a vanity project which seems out of control. No one I know wants it.
What a waste of government money and public taxes ! It should have gone into the NHS instead ! Its just the government ministers that want this darn thing built no-one else ! Normal people won't be able to afford to pay the ticket prices anyway ! Sad state of British Government. They've got their priorities all wrong !! :(
i dont think anything can be done....your dealing with people that are high end. its like the whole oil crap...who owns that ???, oil tycoons and bankers..... why are we still on petrol....that thing that was chased around lakenheath with venom aircraft in 1956 didnt run on conventional fuel....reason we are still using petrol is....the powers that are, say you are....and thats rockefellar (ran the 5412 project) and rothschilds...who are best pals with rockefellar, and in my research into CIA leaks, i found that rothshild was involved in MI5, then involved with thatcher.....them folk have your arses....you want to get anywhere then expose THEM for what they are. motto of that story is, in my 5 year research on the govt, the people with money get what they want, they own our arses.
A complete white elephant and total waste of time and money. The current infrastructure needs to be updated and improved and taken back into public ownership. HS2 IS NOT NEEDED ANY MORE THAN ANOTHER BLOODY RUNWAY AT HEATHROW!!!!!
So many better ways to spend the money. Better roads, cross- pennine routes, electrification on N W.
Brown envelopes all round, methinks 😣
Stop spending money on projects that are not fit for purposr5!
One great huge expensive white elephant
Amazing how so many of us wanted the money to Improve the infrastructure and yet the government was sold a dodgy dream.
They will sell it to private investors once we've paid for it. Of course they will make sure they have invested in the company they sell it to.
Very little is, in fact " Britain by and large is not working.
That and the fact the trains are old, dirty, overcrowded, and over price. Oh and they rarely run on time!
Of course it isnt .....all the money gets spunged up by the shareholders and not put back into the system.....the prices they charge we should have the best train service in the world.....
Pull down all the HS2 signs then they'll forget where they are supposed to be taking this line. If they put them back pull them down again. Put them outside council offices. Someone will get fed up though I doubt it will be those that have the most to lose.
Down here in New Zealand, the Loonies pulled up our Passenger Rail service in the small country towns...we have gone backwards 200 years
Travelling by train anywhere shows why it’s not working. In fact looking at the ticket prices does before that
That's unfair. It is working for the fat cats who make money from it. It just doesn't work for travellers.

The answer’s easy - nationalise the railways.
Many people said the railway was a mess under BR. The privatised railway is an even bigger mess that is slowly becoming unusable with out a fight or disruption. You can't get a seat even if the train turns up. Its the most uncomfortable way to travel. I can't go in the car either as taking the car anywhere is a hassle. Not only is the railway in a mess. The whole country is.
In the days of br, staff got free unlimited rail travel when working. Unfortunately these days tocs don’t give staff free travel just reduced
This government can’t be blind to the will of the people... they must know that the general feeling is that the private operators are not wanted on Britain’s railways so there must be some kind of fraud going on between the Tory/Dup Government and these companies.... Britain’s railways must be made public simple
We drove back home to the north west yesterday after a weekend in Brighton, left at 7pm, arrived home at 4am, this journey took 4 hours longer than it should have because the M6 past Birmingham was reduced to a single lane past Birmingham and there was a diversion around Stafford: I thought the story wouldn’t have been any better if we had gone by train, with cancellations due to driver shortages and the weather, etc! Transport policy in this country is appalling, it’s so haphazard and disorganised, we are like a “third world” country now!
The utter stupidity of UK train travel in the 21st century.
Add buses to this. BBBR, what's the plan if sanity prevails and rail is renationalised? What will it cost, who will pay and how do we sell the benefits to the shires? These are hard questions but answering them grounds the campaign. Am I totally off on this? Enthusiasm and high minded rhetoric is chaotic. See the "Leave" campaign as an example of a nasty but effective application of focus. Focus works. It works when the facts are right or wrong. That moral high ground I alluded to is real and a hard sell. But it's our Island, ironically a message of "Leave". Ours is inclusive.
Trains were not a mess under BR. But the national system collapsed a few years after privatisation, with disasters such as Potters Bar.
With NO financial compensation, but subject to proven need.
Where I live, we need railways and trains before we start to worry about tickets!
A ticket should be valid on whatever train comes along. Telling people they can't use a ticket because it's a different company is an abomination.

NATIONALISE RAIL GAS WATER ELECTRIC STEEL COAL AND STRIP ALL SHAREHOLDERS OF THEIR PROFITS!!
It was all obvious from the beginning this would happen. Who'd ever heard of a fair capitalist lol
The Tories did not fail with privatisation; some of them made a fortune.
And the rest of the geese that laid the golden eggs ,that used to put money in The treasury BT,CEGB,WaterBoards ,BP,Gas etc
AYE and NOT JUST BRITISH RAIL but "ALL" BRITISH INSTITUTIONS. NEITHER OF WHICH WERE governments TO SELL. THESE INSTITUTIONS BELONGED TO THE NATION ( THE BRITISH GENERAL PUBLIC). IT IS TIME WE GENERAL PUBLIC RECLAIMED OUR PROPERTY.
And the rest of the geese that laid the golden eggs ,that used to put money in The treasury BT,CEGB,WaterBoards ,BP,Gas etc
Even harold macmilan said we are selling the family silver at the time !yet some people still actualy think that thatcher was good !and had all britains interest at heart ? We are paying through the nose for her lies
Everything should come back to state control, it's an expensive shambles
BR was profitable after sectorisation in the 1980s so why do the politics have to make life harder with the failed privatisation?
Loving the sentiment of the posts above,makes me feel folk are starting to wake up. We’ve been civilly obedient for far too long!
Sadly, so many daft and greedy Gadarene swine succumbed to the bribes of instant profits from the share give-aways for the utilities. I wonder if any of them has ever regretted this?
They paid off Sid a long time ago. He has a regular gig talking at rail industry conferences now. Seriously, sniping at this rubbish is below you.
The profits are just a different kind of tax that goes into private hands instead of being re-invested.
All one rotten fiddle and some fools couldnt see it

A government of crooks and scammers and still the same - it stinks.

You could have had it decades ago with an integrated road rail system(BRS and BR) but the Tories destroyed all that in the fifties and sixties,
Apart from the fact that this is Norfolk-based, the National version is what I've been saying since the 1960's, (except possibly the bit about "free at the point of use", apart from for holders of travel passes, such as senior citizens etc.).
Abolish bike reservation mumbo jumbo and ticket restrictions. In fact if railways were renationalised, all fares should be always be the price of off peak and maybe bigger discounts on railcards than the current 1/3 atm
There is no concise transport policy in this country apart from provide the absolute base minimum or less and hope everybody buys a car. Now we have climate change, the internal combustion engine is out, the roads are utterly clogged and we know electric cars are not going to cut it. So suddenly, we need real reliable mass transportation. We’ve needed it for 60 years, but they’ve fobbed us off.
I want the win every lottery jackpot for the next week,and there’s more chance of that happening
