Shaun Maunder, EpsomA sensible understanding of what public services should be.
Charlotte Weatherill, LiverpoolMy nine minute commute is the most stressful and expensive part of my day. The service couldn’t be worse.
Caroline Saville, LondonIt will be possible to achieve this with a solid grassroots movement but it’s going to be an uphill struggle.
Hilary James, DonegalIt’s high time ticketing/pricing was unified. It’s the 21st century – people shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to book a train journey.
Michael Duff, Milton KeynesI’d like to know how many politicians are connected to and earning money from companies involved in privatisation.
Joe Laughlin, KeighleyRe-nationalise and lets have a rail system owned by the people for the people with the profits going to the government not private companies.
Charlie Matthews, SwanleyI’m fed up with the service we get for the price we pay.
George Parkin, WorksopThere is proof that railways can make a profit in the public sector.
Eva Zacharia, LondonIf the government wants to help working people and reduce short-haul flights, nationalising the railways is the option that makes most sense.
Michael Bell, Tyne and WearI would like to see this happen but under this so-called rubbish government it will not happen.
Paul Worsnop, NottinghamI am sick of being ripped off by greedy companies whose only purpose is to maximise profits.
Alan Thomson, WareKeep East Coast Trains in public ownership and add also Greater Anglia and First Capital Connect.
Richard King, BristolRe-nationalise now.
Stephen Doggart, DundeeWe are supporting the network with our taxes. Let’s get something back from our investment. Nationalise Now. Put the people back in charge.
Neil Winterburn, LiverpoolThe rail system of the UK should support the mobility of the population not the greed of corporations.
Richard Hart, BromleyRailways are a service and not for private profit.
Carol Jardine, EdinburghTravel by rail has now become too expensive for many people on lower incomes. We now look enviously at other countries’ rail systems that appear to serve the people.
Stephen Clark, CumbernauldPut the money where it belongs, back into the railways, to enhance them and bring down the cost for the people that use them.
Julie Harrison, HertfordLet us spread the word about this petition.
Richard Walthew, DunsWill common sense and the obvious finally prevail?
Martin Crimp, SouthportTime these sponging train operating companies were hung out to dry.
William Hughes, RugbyBR got a quarter of the subsidy of the private companies and did a better job.
Laurence Cooke, CoventryEnough is Enough.
Kelvin Hanratty, SalfordPlease bring it back to the people for the people, rather than for private profit. It’s not worked and never will work. We demand redress and an affordable price structure.
Brian Dempsey, Bo’nessThey should never have been sold off. It’s now a shambles – private greed and profit put before passengers.
Nick Chamberlin, StockportThe privatised railways in Britain are a joke. They are unaffordable, dirty, poor quality. Take them back into public ownership
Russell ButlerI fail to understand how anyone could say the railway has improved in the hands of these private companies.
Richard Matthewman, FavershamIndustries for people and not for shareholders’ profit. I support the campaign for better management of the railways.
Anthony Dent, LondonThe only way to have a unified rail system and cheaper fares.
Paul Allsopp, Builth WellsThis service is strategic and integral to the efficient running of the country. It should be owned by taxpayers not shareholders.
