Douglas Nash, Hamilton, USAGet rid of these damned psycho paint schemes and ugly new equipment.
Bill McIntosh, SloughThe time has come to end this greed of privatisation of our railways. Nationalisation will guarantee a price affordable for all, no more ludicrous price hikes.
Andrew Booth, HarrogateThe railways were stolen from us. If you have shares in railway companies, you are in receipt of stolen goods.
Linda Long, LondonNationalise the railways.
Derek McCarthy, InvernessShould never have been sold off by the robbing Tories.
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.
Ralph Dyson, DoncasterUnity is strength.
Mary Thomas, PlymouthEnough is enough. Give us back our railways.
Vic Bagshaw, StockportAll sold-off businesses should be re-nationalised.
Steven White, HullGreat Campaign. I fully support its ideals The Tories deliberately ran the railways into the ground through lack of funding in order to convince the public to privatise.
Paul Houldsworth, YorkPrivate it’s theirs Public it’s ours.
Tessa Gordziejko, Hebden BridgeThe privatisation experiment has failed. Rail transport is an integrated service essential to the economy and needs public ownership.
Sutharsan Raju, BedfordBring back the British railway.
Jean-Michel Legg, ShaftesburyCorporate profit-motive plus light-touch spineless regulation spells raw deal for consumers. Who knew?
Richard Reed, ReigateI believe in a better transport system for London. Profiteering from commuter misery leaves me sick in the gut. Third world transport system at first world prices must end.
Ellen Blakemore, BrightonThe railways in the UK need to be brought into the 21st century. We need paperless, at cost, reliable travel, not the confusing, expensive and inefficiency we now have.
Andre Bernal, LondonThings are better run in public ownership, transparently and with no profiteering from private companies. Why did we get rid of British Rail?
Thomas JohnstonBritish taxpayers paying to keep European fares low.
Denise Smith, ExeterWe have an absolute mess now.
Ena Stansfield, NottinghamI wish a Government would nationalise the railways again. I remember before it was privatised. It wasn’t perfect but it was so much better than now.
Nicola Godfrey, InvernessAnother theft which needs to be sorted.
Jerry Scales, AylesburyNational assets should not be sold off. We are laughed at by other countries.
Steven Harland, BradfordThe Tories privatised a lot of things from Maggie Thatcher onwards. The biggest mistake was our railway. It’s not British now. It’s time to buy it back.
Petra Mo, AurovilleTrains make a lot more sense at least for short to medium trips. Please.
David McDermid, Newton MearnsPrivatisation of BR was one of the most inexcusable government decisions ever. We are left with high fares and bad service. Privatisation didn’t work for BR.
Eileen Jaques, YorkAlthough not frequent, I am a regular train user, mainly between York and London and occasionally other destinations.
Patrick O’Connor, CanterburyThe current arrangements do not in any way constitute a ‘joined-up’ system which works properly.
Jean Mann, LeedsStop putting profit before the welfare of the passengers.
Albertina Benedetti-Hall, LondonThere might be a few things the private sector is better suited for than the public, but this is not it. Re-nationalise.
Kevin Michael, GovilonNone of the main parties is discussing this wholly sensible option, yet poll after poll shows that this course of action is favoured by many people in Britain.
