Maire Wilcox, CalstockPut people before profits and see what happens.
Gareth Brown, RugbyServices by the people for the people, let’s not stop here. Bring the energy and water companies back into public ownership as well.
John Picken, LondonIt should never have been privatised. It’s another failed experiment in Tory ideology which has just ripped off UK citizens and further rewarded the already much too rich.
David Robinson, SheffieldNo compensation to shareholders. After all, they got the shares at a knock-down price.
Lindesay Irvine, LondonThis move would save money, integrate the service, and win the government much needed support.
Jennie Cummings-Knight, CromerWe are gradually losing many facilities that used to be exclusively British – let’s keep this one, at all costs.
Jonathan Ravenhill Lloyd, HastingsProfits are like rust to public services.
Mike Kelley, DerbyPrivatisation is a disaster.
Rowan Brock, ChesterJust because London is where the money is, it isn’t where all the people are. We deserve better, not for the profits, but because we deserve and need it.
John Phantis, BathThe UK’s rail network shouldn’t be subservient to shareholders’ interests and fares should be reasonable for all.
John Raynor, LutonRe-nationalise energy as well.
Paul White, HuddersfieldEast Coast Line is the model railway outfit for all UK rail.
George Grant, BurbageRail is a public service and should be publically owned.
John Lowe, OxfordBring back British Rail and get rid of all the TOCs and bring it under one umbrella.
Dawn Farrier, NottinghamEverything that was ever nationalised before Thatcher sold it should be re-nationalised.
Brian Mitchell, LondonIt is ludicrous that we have to pay for an over-expensive, inefficient railway system because of the political dogma of politicians.
Brian Talbot, Hebden BridgeBring back British Rail.
Kieron Phillips, HartlepoolBritish Rail would benefit the whole country. As the BBC and the NHS are publicly owned, so should the rail service along with lots of other state services!
Mohammed Zulkernain, SloughBring back British Rail, when open return tickets were the norm.
Gerry Mooney, PaisleyRe-nationalise the railways now and plan for a long term investment in the most sustainable form of transport.
Stephen Blomfield, SheffieldThe privatisation of British Rail has proved a disaster for the British public and a bonanza for those businesses in the private sector which provide rail services.
Ryan Watson, ScunthorpePrivatisation has been nothing short of a disaster. Abolish the Treasury now!
Elin Gibbon, Wigginton, YorkSave our railway.
Graham Armstrong, LondonBring the catering back in house too. I miss spiced coffee.
Harvey Gelder, PontefractPrivatisation has put profit before safety.
David Broadmeadow, LouthIt’s ludicrous that the profit-making (for the taxpayer), East Coast Trains has been re-privatised. That’s dogma gone mad.
Adam Lewins, DoncasterBring it back as soon as possible.
Ashley Mack, TorbayBring back British control.
Cyril Rhodes, SheffieldIt should not have been done in the first place.
Paul Taylor, SheffieldI believe that privately run trains do not have the customer’s comfort at heart and just want to make as much profit out of us. We want reasonably priced tickets.
