I am totally against train operators’ high pricing, which still doesn’t guarantee a comfortable seat.

Ted Hammond, Daventry

My friend once again on the way back from London to Penzance found she had to change to a bus in Exeter.

Brian Charlton, Penzance

Privatisation has led to higher fares and poorer service. We need a network run for the people not for profit as the current system isn’t working.

Simon Mather, Preston

The necessities of life should never be tradable commodities.

Mike Third, London

I commute every day and the service is terrible. I pay over £2,000 a year and get a seat 25% of the time.

Chris Hanley, Halifax

Tired of funding shareholders with outrageous rail ticket prices. We’re the highest in the world.

Richard Povall, Kingsbridge

Expect nothing to happen with the Tories.

Maurice Thomas, Uxbridge

A policy for the integration of all public transport should be urgently pursued.

Alan Middleton, Durham

The railways should be run for the people not for profit.

Kevin Webb, Selby

Privatisation equals poor service and higher prices.

Anthony Ryan, Hull

I fully support any movement with the intention of bringing transport or utilities back under public ownership.

Jon Rudge, Ormskirk

I want to shove my train ticket somewhere I won’t say! But you know where I am thinking of, cough, cough!

Anthony Wilson, East Sussex

Warren Knight, St Albans

Take it all back.

Mark Thomas, Merthyr Tydfil

You are doing a fantastic job.

Christine Cudworth, Wakefield

A united, extensive, sustainable transport system, run by society for society!

Daniel Casey, Bristol

For goodness’ sake nationalise the railway, subsidise it, make it affordable and reduce air pollution. Thank you.

Gus Cummins, Bristol

Please do this. My Young Person’s Card is about to run out, and the fares are going to cripple my attempts to live without a car.

Joe Boswell, Bristol

There’s absolutely no excuse at all for privatisation, never mind any so-called justification whatsoever.

Douglas Park, London

It used to be so easy to get anywhere at a reasonable price. Now it’s so difficult with all this profiteering going on.

Holly Roberts, London

Anything which helps to bring back the old system I shall be glad to be part of.

Janet Marshall, Barry

Bring back BR. It is only common sense.

Linda Martin, London

Public transport is so crucial for some people and yet it’s so expensive and not run as a public service. We need this.

Jake Morris, Cambridge

The current success of the East Coast line is testament enough to how much this needs to happen.

Michael Henson, Pickering

We need to adhere to the European standard. We subsidise it in any case. In France, Belgium etc. there are clean fast trains that run on time.

Mona Johnson, Stockport

Railways are for the people and should be an extensive network bringing communities together and should be affordable for all.

Alan Howell, Leeds

You don’t have enough character spaces for me to list all the problems of the absurd state of privatised rail in the UK today and the incompetence/failure of the government.

Patrick Henry, Congleton

A good state-run railway is fundamental to the infrastructure of a well run society.

Sue Caddick, Sevenoaks

People not profit. Re-unify our country again. Encourage us off the roads.

Mike Powell, Ellesmere Port

I’m sick of bogus fares and little tricks like split tickets. We want a fair fare system..

Peter Hubberstey, Preston
