Roy Cogo, SuttonSocial ownership, run by the people for the people now.
Adam Powell, LeatherheadRenationalise now.
David Reed, PeterboroughI would like to see BR re-nationalised.
Clare Annand, DunstableIt’s completely obvious that railway privatisation is a failure. The only train journey I have enjoyed was on an East Coast train, when it was run by the government.
Rachel Pollard, WatfordBeing an ex BR employee I would dearly love to be that proud person who says I work for BR again. It was a great organisation and like a second family to me.
Chris Tucker, BristolNationalised services for the common good should be preferred over shareholder profit for the privileged few.
John Sadgrove, BristolI love trains, but I hate what has become of our rail network. It’s called public transport. The clue is in the name…
Ethan Humble, WhitbyBring Back BR.
Shelagh Dobson, CambridgeEnough is enough. We want a decent and well run train system, run for the benefit and comfort of passengers, not to make huge profits for greedy companies.
Jon Rust, HolmfirthThe UK needs a public unified rail service for public transport.
Jonathan Goode, CaterhamRe-nationalise the current rail system.
James Franks, Stoke GiffordAll privatisation results in the government subsidising private profit and ripping off the consumer.
John Simons, SouthamptonThe entire nation could have cheap, reliable transport if run properly.
Fouad Saad, LondonI depend on this train for my daily commute and it is an absolute disaster!
Robert Hawes, FavershamWhy do we have services that are owned by other countries’ national rail companies?
Gregg Burnell, ChesterfieldI’d love to use trains more but, almost every time I do, I’m staggered by the inefficiency and outrageous cost of the service. It needs to change.
Irina Ozerkina, LondonDeliver good and affordable service so that everyone could benefit.
Stephen Jarvis, Newcastle-upon-TyneThe sooner the better it’s back to British Rail – the better for all of us.
Ewart Fitzgerald, SittingbourneReduce fares and stop taxpayers and passengers lining the pockets of the owners of train operating companies.
Barry Gallego, RochesterWe are fed up with paying high rise prices for these greedy rail bosses. The trains never get you on time. Bring back British Rail.
Lynn Cotton, DurhamPlease nationalise the railways. Privatisation has not worked. I want our railways back in public ownership and accountable to the taxpayer.
Ann Round, PenzanceThe railways could be de-privatised at no cost to the taxpayer: just do not renew the franchises. The taxpayer will then make a profit.
Terry Stockman, SidcupThe current system just isn’t working – except for shareholders.
Nicky Edwards, St AlbansThe railways are a complete joke. We need action as soon as possible. Worst railway in the world. How much more money can you bleed from the public pockets?
Brenda Grunwell, IpswichBring our services back to public ownership.
Rafael Kowalczyk, LondonFor the past months my morning Southern train to Victoria was never on time and you couldn’t get on it as it was way overcrowded. This is unfair. What do I pay for?
David Stockham, BristolRail privatisation has only benefited the TOC’s and their shareholders. No more political ideology. Bring back British Rail and a unified, efficiently-run railway.
Stephen Atkins, EdinburghThe private rail companies are getting more subsidy than BR ever received. They get compensated when things go wrong. They cannot lose. Time to renationalise.
Matt Kingsnorth, ChelmsfordI work shifts and I’m fed up with sparse trains outside 9-5. I work in TV. Would you like it if I stopped your favourite programme because I had to get the last train?
Kim Saunders, Southend-on-SeaRe-nationalise it for the people, put the profits back into paying decent wages and re-generation of the system, not lining the fat cats’ pockets.
