Our rail system should be run purely for public service as it is in a lot of other European countries.

Elaine Barraud, Godalming

It should never have been privatised in the first place, as should public utilities not have been.

Valerie Pritchard, Newcastle-upon-Tyne

Any form of public transport should be an integrated public service, designed and operated for the convenience of passengers who pay for it through paying their fares.

Hazel Wood, East Linton

I believe all major infrastructure should be nationalised, so that it is controlled by government, thereby giving the voters ultimate control, not fat cats.

Steve Blackwell, Nottingham

The rail network is being more and more fragmented and less easy to navigate.

Mark De Barr, Liskeard

Give us back our railways.

Robert Robinson, London

I know it’ll never happen but we can but try.

Liam Browne, Northampton

East Coast have shown the way. Public sector can do it profitably.

Mike Norris, Alnmouth

Let’s bring back British Rail and lower prices for tickets, as private companies are charging way too much to travel to places.

Leanne Green, Hyde

The railways should be for the people and run by the people.

Roger Bowerman, London

Then re-nationalise all the other state-owned utilities, until Maggie came.

Joyce Saunders, Edinburgh

Bring back British Railways.

Alan Street, Seaview

We need a proper integrated rail system run for the benefit of passengers, not shareholders.

Jacqueline Wilson, Doncaster

We are supporting the network with our taxes. Let’s get something back from our investment. Nationalise Now. Put the people back in charge.

Stephen Doggart, Dundee

Train travel in the UK is far too expensive for such a poor service.

Scott Foy, Paisley

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

Alan Middleton, Durham

Another Great British institution trampled on by fake profiteering. Shame.

James Masters, London

It can’t happen soon enoug. Imagine what a mess this franchising obsession will make of HS2.

Simon Herbert, London

We need our rail system back in the public sector so private companies can not rip us off every year. Its getting to the point that I cannot afford to get to work.

Ayse Smith, Orpington

Corbyn can do it.

Will Baleham, Oxford

I am embarrassed by the state of our British railways service. As a commuter I am robbed every year of more money to prop it up. We must nationalise now.

Lee O’Callaghan, Peterborough

Railway investment for the passengers not for the fat cats’ and shareholders’ dividends. People before profit.

A Beckett, Bristol

Award winning companies stripped of their franchises & worse… the march downward to profit focused services above all other concerns is harmful on so many levels.

C L Gamble, Dundee

We need a rail network that serves the people and isn’t there for private profit.

David Scott, East Linton

A great place to start. Then we can see about bt and the other utilities.

Iain Woodfield

I get ripped off by train companies far too much.

James McGowan, Liverpool

Make sure it is run like East Coast is now.

Anne Johnson, Selby

Nothing pisses me off more than being out of the EU than the ridiculously low value for money private train networks have given the people in the UK.

Lorenzo Bonoldi, Seaford

Put customer service before profit and stop this ideological nonsense.

Steven Benson, York
