James Bates, Isle of SkyePeople before profit.
David Wilde, PrestonpansVive British Rail.
Michelle Doidge, WorcesterThey should never have been privatised in the first place as it has now become an inefficient way of running the railway.
Robin Campbell, HitchinEast Coast proves it works in government ownership. It should never have been privatised.
Annek Bulmer, Stockton-on-TeesPrivatisation isn’t working.
Vic Crockett, ErithI used to work for British Rail as a shunter and the South East was taken over by Network Southeast, new networker trains were brought in and I lost my job as a result.
Stephen Fairweather, NorwichWe should un-privatise everything. I’m fed up with being ripped off by greedy fat cats, and I’m sure I speak for most of us.
Simon Redmond, RomfordBring back nationalised railways – for better value, safety and productivity.
Stephen Hopkins, Swanseaput it all back in public ownership so it is run for the people by the people.
Robert Jump, ColneThe infrastructure is owned by the government and the promised private investment has failed to materialise. Competition has failed to keep prices down.
Ian Potter, SheffieldIt makes economic, social and environmental sense to have the railways run for our benefit again. Why wouldn’t you?
Nicholas Darsley, LondonThe rail system should be for the benefit of travellers, not for private profit.
Bryan Love, AxminsterThe only opponents to this campaign, apart from the gloating and ridiculously paid profiteers, are nationalised foreign railways subsidised by our sardine-passengers.
Tom Duffy, CoventryWe need more cohesion, lower prices and an upgraded service.
Ian Brett, LondonRe-nationalise the railways now.
Ann Bywater, LoughboroughMore profits for public services, less to greedy shareholders.
Henry Winterbourne, High WycombeYes, bring back BR – much better days.
Giulio Isernia, Cremona, ItalyThe main people transport has to be public.
Chris George, BristolRenationalise now.
Jordan Smith, BristolStop the fares rip-off getting stupid.
Lynda Haydney, St Leonards on SeaBring back BR. We overpay for a terrible service. Privatisation should never have happened.
Adrian Morris, LondonIt can’t happen soon enough.
Keita Hooker-Yoshikawa, YokohamaPlease tell your MPs.
Yvonne Jones, CwmbranTrain fares should be affordable for all, not just the elite who usually have their tickets paid by the taxpayer anyway.
Julia Hector, StirlingI would like to be able to use the railways like I used to, where my (reasonable) fare goes towards the railways not for some profiteering company.
Theo Williams, RydeThe state of the current national network is a disgrace. Nationalisation of the railway system would lead to a better regulated system with lower costs for the commuter.
John Rochford, MiddlewichIn a truly civilized, wise society, things like railways and our electricity/gas provision, should be run by the people for the people.
Denis Rice, NottinghamWe need less fragmentation of services. East Coast line shows again what public ownership achieves for the benefit of all.
Joseph McLaughlin, CoatbridgeI believe that a healthy democratic nation should own all of its own infrastructure, including Health, Education, Roads, Water and Railways.
Jean-Pierre Tremp, BrusselsAs a student from abroad in the seventies, I learned to love the U.K. (yes, it was at least united by rail) by travelling with a (then) affordable Britrail Pass.
