Rosalie Rogers, EastleighFares have recently increased dramatically in the last few years for no obvious reason and it is ridiculous.
Jack McRobbie, IpswichTrain services need to be better in every way so why not re-nationalise?
David Bowers, GlasgowEast Coast shows we can run trains, without private companies getting the subsidies for their profits.
Andree Mehew, LondonBecause it’s the best.
Ray Willis, WakefieldPublic services for the public.
Vera Watson, DurhamI don’t see the point of paying subsidies to private firms.
John Marriott, HarlowTrains for the people, not for profit.
John Hinds, LondonRe-invest profits from a re-unified national railway system back into the network. Any surplus can go into our NHS or for building new homes.
Gregor McIntosh, KirriemuirNationalisation is necessary to lower fares and make rail travel more affordable and attractive in the face of the climate crisis.
Theresa Marsden, PeterboroughEast Coast is putting money back into the public purse rather than into profits for shareholders. That is as it should be. Every privatisation raises prices.
Alison Hosler, ExeterLet’s face it, rail privatisation didn’t work.
Mark O’Neill, NottinghamIt’s not about socialism, it’s about having a working transport system.
Steve Rogers, TotnesThe privatised system is expensive and pointless.
Ollie Foord, BracknellI miss the blue and white era.
Charles Honderick, LondonI am appalled by the sky-rocketing price of travel, the most expensive in all of Europe. It’s disgusting.
Algernon Rees, LondonThe price of train travel is significantly affecting my ability to live my daily life. We desperately need re-nationalisation.
Thomas McCausland, ManchesterNo more profit-sharing giants.
Siobhan Anker, ManchesterBring it back. You know it make sense.
Clare Brennan, EdinburghThe East Coast rail service is running well. I think re-nationalising the rest of the rail network would result in cheaper fares and improved safety for passengers.
Helen Haynes, Kings LangleyPassengers not profits.
Paul Southcott, YorkPrivatisation has made things both worse and more expensive for the passenger and all the profits go to off-shore companies that pay very little tax.
Euan Rafferty, Leamington SpaI have been using rail in the UK for thirty years and it has gone downhill rapidly since privatisation.
Freddie Gould, LondonKeep the fare prices down and the public services in public control.
Simon Tilley, NorthamptonI hate London Midland and their never ending list of excuses. I want a system of fair and proportionate rail fares.
Michael Fearn, CambornePrivatisation has been a disaster for the public services and the culture that it has encouraged has lead to a cheapening of every aspect of our public life.
Simon Coll, OakhamWhy is handing our public services and utilities to the nationalised companies of other countries better than running them in the UK public sector?
John Neville, BrightonGive it back.
Richard Bird, CharingWe need a countrywide strategy for our rail network based on public service, not a fragmented greed-driven huggermugger of disparate trough feeders.
Daman Gaskell, LondonSoutheastern is the worst train operator ever I have never in four years left or arrived on time and the state of the trains is disgusting.
