Benji Clifford, Bexhill-on-SeaNo comment needed. It’s obvious this needs to happen.
Nik Devlin, LondonI hate how the UK’s train network is falling to bits.
M Lovious, LiverpoolI have not used the train more than 4 times since it was de-nationalised.
Jacinta Appleby, LondonIf a national rail works in France, Spain, Italy and Germany, then why not here? Re-instate British Rail.
David Cross, HullPrivatisation has made the country poorer. Only big businesses like Virgin are gaining.
Eric Smith, LudgershallRe-nationalise all our industrial infrastructure and don’t sell them to foreign companies.
Simon Bampton, HoveThe UK must be one of the few countries in the world with a privatised rail service. A National Rail service would benefit all
Mark Westendorp, Lyme RegisWe are paying for it anyway so let’s have it back.
Sami Richards, LiverpoolI think that privatisation was a stupid idea, There is basically no competition on the railways and so the core argument for privatisation is invalid.
Ray Smith, LutonAlthough not a commuter, I travel on the line into London all the time. I have a Network card and put it to good use but it’s become increasingly less fun to go into London.
Mark Bailey, SheffieldI couldn’t agree more. Re-nationalise the railways now.
Dom Sellars, ElyPaying almost £9 every day to go to college is simply ridiculous.
Moira Garland, LeedsTransport to benefit the country should be run for public benefit, not profit. A unified system makes sense.
Sohail Zafar, LondonAll strategic industries must be in state ownership.
Lindsay McDougall, CramlingtonA totally integrated system makes much more sense.
David Hamilton, SouthamptonPrivatisation has been a farce. The sooner British Rail is re-nationalised the better for all.
John Taylor, IlkestonServices for people, not profits. No super railway – upgrade the existing one.
Aaron M, East SussexTicket prices have ballooned since privatisation, as every player in the rail industry whacks up the profit margins.
Brenda James, LlanelliWe need a publicly-owned transport system or living in rural areas will become impossible for anyone without a car.
Clare Honey, NorwichWe need affordable fares and clean trains.
Evin RyanWhy must they all privatise the profits and nationalise the losses?
Richard Smith, EastleighBring back British Rail.
Nicola Brown, LondonAs a frequent weekend traveller to Derby, I am sorry to say that it is now cheaper for me to drive around London and then on the M1 to Derby rather than travel by train.
Philip Mead, LondonIt’s a no-brainer.
Alison Winstone, LeicesterNot only nationalise rail, but add water, gas, electricity and telephones. Tax-payers set these up and should hold on to profits and invest in renewables..
Caitlin Burns, Leamington SpaThe train service should be more integrated and more affordable, if they want people to use public transport.
Kaan Sahin, WiganBBBR.
David Dow, AtherstonePrivatisation of our British services is a vile crime against the people of this country. Re-nationalise and run the railways as not-for-profit, to serve us all fairly.
Lee Dalton, WeymouthUtilities should belong to the people.
Tina McCloskey, Londonit is crazy that our rail prices subsidise cheap rail in other countries who own shares in our rail. The Tories hate the people clearly if they think this makes sense.
