Oliver Steward, NorwichReturn our railways to public ownership.
Ian Beasley, Stoke-on-TrentOur services belong in public hands. No more private railways or bus services.
Martin D’souza, NorthamptonIt’s about time we started taking back those services meant for the people not big business.
Fary Webb, BurnleyNationalisation of the Railways is long overdue.
Martin Lakie, WorcesterEnd fragmentation, ridiculous complexity, huge hidden subsidies and profiteering now.
David Crabtree, EynshamThe railway should be run by the people for the benefit of the people. The only successful rail companies are state-owned. Bring them all back and stop this madness.
Claire Liebig-Denham, Thornaby-on-TeesWe owned it, you sold it and we want it back.
Gillian Malouf, StockportCross Country now use the Trainline to service their website and have suddenly started charging £1 to collect tickets from the self service station machines.
Fiona Ruth Law, YorkBritish Rail must be a public service run by a public not a private company.
Katerina Turner, ChelsmfordThird world service for first class prices. I’m sick of spending insane amounts of money on trains that are terrible.
Jerome Lejeune, LondonEast Coast is a success, keep it public, use this as a template for other parts of the network.
Christopher Wilson-Cooch, PrestonIf we live in a free country, how is it that many people cannot afford to get from one end of it to the other? The free market has failed and it’s time to re-nationalise.
Andrew Riseborough, GillinghamBring back British Rail for the good of the country and the fare-paying public.
Gabrielle Macbeth, GlasgowUntil rail prices fall people will continue to fly across the country. Let’s make rail the first choice for travel.
Alex England, LlanidloesIt would be a vote-winner, and wouldn’t cost money. It looks like it would be a net income. There are not enough reasons not to.
Peter Green, CleethorpesThe Government already pays towards supporting the railways and is being fleeced by the companies that run it, so let’s get rid of all these free loading fat cats.
Phil Clarke, NuneatonFormer BR employee seeks re-nationalised network for constructive relationship.
Ann Bywater, LoughboroughMore profits for public services, less to greedy shareholders.
Irene Coleman, LeedsI want East Coast Rail to stay in public hands and then the rest of the network to follow.
Cameron Sanderson, LondonTravelling around the UK, whether for leisure, work or family visits, should not be costed at such a high price as to be prohibitive without booking weeks in advance.
Patricia Steeden, WatfordThe franchising and ticketing for privatised railways is ridiculous. Bring back British Rail which my father worked for many years.
Ian Carruthers, BoltonI am in total agreement with you.
Barnaby Green, LondonToot toot.
Karl Roome, LeedsSort it out.
Joseph Pakenham, GlasgowIf the amount invested in subsidies since privatisation had happened to BR, there’d never have been an excuse to privatise it.
Bill PorterWith fewer staffed ticket offices the travelling public will get worse customer service and no help getting the best deals from an ever confusing array of tickets.
Brian Thomas, Pwllheli,They always did belong to the people and funded by the people. They should be set up along the same model as Waitrose – Quality and owned by the employees.
Michael Chapman-Johns, Hebden BridgeGreed rules the railways now, and profit at the cost of the people. This needs to end. £13.50 for half hour trip to work daily. It’s a joke.
Wendy Bennett, WallaseyBecause it will work better.
