Bryan J Willis, GatesheadStop the rail rip-off.
Belinda Wiggs, SheffieldBring back British Rail.
John Hogg, Grantown-on-SpeyToo much profiteering by current rail operating companies, a complete shambles.
Judith Joy, SkiptonPrivatisation only works for the owners and their shareholders. Return to BR now.
Gerry McCartney, JohnstoneI’m keen to be involved in local transport campaigns. Please put me in touch with local union and other campaigners.
Adrian Porter, KendalThe shambolic Northern ‘service’ currently destroying the Windermere branch line is yet another reason why we need to BBBR.
Peter Williams, Bexhill-on-SeaYou cannot run a national rail system the way it’s being done. Passengers and taxpayers are being ripped off.
David Stride, FarehamRail for the community and country and not for private profit.
Graham Triggs, StevenagePrivatisation is a disaster. Franchises awarded based on false claims of returns, and not on value and service.
Robert Lindsey, LondonTrain overdue.
Roger Goodwin, HerefordThe cost of travelling by rail is pricing people out of using them. In a lot of cases, it is now cheaper to travel by car.
Carl Hodgetts, CardiffI’m tired of paying extortionate fares in order to prop up shareholders in private companies whilst the services themselves are unbelievably substandard.
Charlotte Warne Thomas, LondonFed up with the swindle of private corporations creaming off public subsidy and providing shoddy service!
Charles Coughlan, Leighton BuzzardEveryone: let your friends and family know about this petition. Privatisation of the railway has made our country worse and now we have to fix it.
Katrina Dorman, LiverpoolIt’s simply not possible to deliver effective services to stakeholders whilst maximising profits for shareholders. All the evidence available proves this point. BBBR.
Ben Guest, WinsfordThe people of this country spent decades building our public infrastructures, funding them with taxpayer money, only to have them sold off at a fraction of their worth.
Rory Barke, YorkBring back British Rail for the common good and not for profit. Then bring back the energy companies, water, electricity and gas.
Rafal Drozdowski, ChelmsfordTicket price is a theft. Do something about it.
Maurice James, St AlbansPlease bring back the concept of public service to British society.
Rupert Hildyard, YorkPrivatisation has failed. Railways are a natural monopoly and should be in public ownership.
Derek Shaw, YorkI am strongly against this sell-off.
Denise Shell, MaltaI retired after 39 years. I’ve mixed feelings. I joined British Rail but retired when my employer was GNER and was very happy with the package and a wonderful retirement party.
Julian Cohen, LondonPrivatisation was a disaster. I’m not saying there weren’t things wrong with British Rail, but at least passengers and organisation were pulling in the same direction.
Ernest Williams, EckingtonWe are paying twice for our services – once through fares and the other through taxes. Stop the rip off.
Paul Cook, EdinburghShame on these privateers and they’re doing it all over again, with the Royal Mail, NHS etc.
Alex Stocker, BristolEnough profiteering, let’s get our social railway back and serve the people who really need it, as well as those who choose to.
David Jones, WidnesHappy to join the petition. The service at present for passengers is not good enough and prices are too high for the poor quality service.
Sheila Amies-Byron, PaigntonWe need to have British Rail returned to public ownership as soon as possible.
James Fibbens, LondonIt’s unlikely to happen, but good luck anyway.
