I’m sick and tired of prices going up, service going down, and often not getting a seat.

Natasha Koritsas, Watford

We need a railway that is run for the benefit of the people not a few multi millionaires.

Philip Feakin, London

Glad to be a part of this movement. British Rail must be re-instated, no ifs or buts.

Bill Duckworth, Chipping Norton

Join up the dots.

Samuel Nelson, Erskine

Just another competition mess handed to speculating shareholders to make money at the expense of the commuting populace. Re-nationalise. Re-investment.

John Howard, Hemel Hempstead

We need a rail system that puts people before profit.

William McKay, Kettering

Privatisation was driven by WTO in the first place, not for the public good. Rail privatisation was the worst of all. Crazy prosecutions for having wrong tickets.

John Raven, Edinburgh

Rail fares are a travesty – beyond the reach of the people.

John Smetham, Wallsend

This might help to stop strikes.

Alison Harte, Kent

Privatisation has made rail services much worse. Trains are cattle trucks not for humans.

Judith Wade, Hemel Hempstead

Sort it out Scameron.

Rupert Rooksby, Nottingham

Stop the gravy train (excuse the pun) and put all the profits back into the upkeep of ‘our’ railways.

Frank Goodall, North Shields

Railways were privatised so why is the government spending £50bn to build a new line only to hand it over to a private operator for the benefit of a few people?

Mark Waterer, Ashford

We need to take all our resources out of the hands of big business and place them back into public ownership.

Andrew Tate, Wolverhampton

British Rail services were more efficient and cheaper. Bring back British Rail.

Vasant Chotai, Edmonton

Better a public than a private monopoly.

Robin Holden, Chipping Norton

Prices are extortionate. The Government wants people to stop driving solo so should make public transport more affordable.

Dennison Packer, Canterbury

We need better regulated fares and to be treated as ‘passengers’, not ‘customers’. Also better choice of rolling stock (no more Pendolinos.)

Jonathan Paul, Gloucester

Definitely re-nationalisation of the railways needs to be made a priority.

Elizabeth Hames, Gainsborough

Why can’t we have a rail service we are proud of?

Juliet Chard, London

We need a reliable economic system to take freight off the roads and provide affordable travel for passengers.

Sylvia Swann, Scarborough

I’m tired of a rubbish and expensive service run mainly by non-British owned companies fleecing the public for profit.

J Spikings, London

The profits made by the train companies are subsidised through the public purse. If we’re paying for this anyway, why don’t we own it?

Neill Grant, Derby

Private rail companies provide services that are over-priced and poorly run. Re-nationalise public transport and run it for people, not profit.

Jake O’Leary, Cheltenham

Privatisation pushes up fares and reduces services, hitting the worst-off and the young hardest. For many the railways are their connection to their livelihoods.

Ed Willey, Ware

Great campaign. How I long for a rational national transport system that is not driven by a free market ideology but by forward thinking policies that put the planet first.

Dean Mander, King’s Lynn

There’s a reason why it is called a ‘natural monopoly.’

Chris Davison, Diss

A very just fight.

David Long, Lichfield

Re-nationalising British Rail is the only remedy for poor accountability, bad standards onboard trains and constantly rising costs. Public ownership would improve these.

Gareth Haydock, Bolton
