I totally support the campaign.

Robert Flynn, Douglas

Re-nationalising the railways is the only rational solution.

Gill Cookson, Sennen Cove

That Tory bodged-up privatisation was absolutely diabolical and wrong.

Alan Hird, Basingstoke

This is a very important issue and we must return our railways to public ownership.

Ronald Branton, York

The current railways are terrifying.

Paul Hebden, Leeds

If public ownership works and makes a profit on East Coast line, why not have the lot in public ownership?

Michael Morgan, Cinderford

Nationalise public transport.

Alex Harvey, Sheringham

Always late, no seats, ludicrously expensive and all about profit.

Matt Day, Sussex

Railways for people not profit.

John Brown, London

The system we have at the moment is not working and is not very good!

Tom Tyler, Kent

Long term management of train tracks needs to be integrated with the operations. Private finance of trains with private equity money is expensive compared to Government debt.

Nicholas Commandeur, Leeds

Re-nationalise the railways, and the utility companies. Monopolies and cartels are ripping us all off, and enriching already-rich fat cats.

James Stewart, Cambridge

I was a teacher for 42 years in the public sector. The Conservatives want to privatise education and the NHS, and I think both would be disastrous, just like the railways.

Ted Goodhew, Maidenhead

Transport, like the utility services, are the lifeblood of the country. Infrastructure is not like having to choose between a white loaf or a brown loaf.

Jim Williams, Kirkby-in-Ashfield

Privatisation is a pathetic failure for ordinary people. It has just made the rich even richer.

William Weller, Wigan

Tory dogma.

Chris Priston, York

All part of the Tory attempt to put all public services in private hands. Re-nationalise all public utilities as soon as possible.

Karen Nadin, Newark

We need a service controlled by the people for the people.

Kevin Johnson, Norwich

Services as important as a National Rail network should be run by the public sector for the public and never for private profit for the 1%.

Brett Crane, Exeter

A publicly-run system can aim subsidy at fare reduction and infrastructure. As it is, shareholders take large chunks for whatever excessive profit is currently expected.

Roger Allen, London

I fully support the campaign for a re-nationalised British rail network. Millions depend on the rail network for leisure, but especially for work.

Phyllis Pelosi, Inverbervie

They should never have been privatised.

Ronald Mackay, Glasgow

Fares are too high. The system needs to be run for the public.

Alex Shearman, Solihull

Bring back efficiency.

Hazel Edwards, Barrow-in-Furness

Privatisation has been an expensive lie. I want services brought back under public ownership.

Tom Dussek, Brighton

Bring rail fares down.

James Robinson, Whitehaven

Trains are a disgrace. The timetable is never kept, and the network is a shambles.

Daniel Wright, Southampton

British Rail.

Stuart Niblo, Exmouth

Bring BR back.

Alec Thorne, Bedford

Bring British Rail back.

Ewan Blaikie, Edinburgh
