Barry Bothamley, YorkThis government seems to want to take away everything that the public wishes to keep to make life better.
Steve Roach, WorcesterHow hard is it to book a bike onto a train? Bring back ‘guard carriages’.
Jack Elliott, LeedsI feel trapped in my city, as rail is uninviting and expensive.
William Quinn, LiverpoolWe need the return of all things that were great about Britain, of which this is just one.
Darren Jalland, FalkirkI want the real accountability state ownership brings to our rail network.
Daniel Grixti, LondonI strongly believe that any part of our society that serves the masses and helps our society run efficiently should be non-for-profit and for the people.
Adam Hiley, UpminsterGood work for re-instating a vital service that should serve us not shareholders.
John Taylor, ManchesterGreat cause. Stop the Tory boys.
Ian Wilson, DarlingtonRailways and utilities should be owned by the taxpayers rather than exploited by investors both here and abroad. How can it be right that vital assets are owned privately?
Sophia Hale-Sutton, EdinburghThe East Coast line seems to be running much better now it’s government run. Public transport should serve the public, not shareholders.
Alice Cochrane, BroraBritish Rail was one of the strongest emblems of national identity Britain had. If our country isn’t over by Sept 19, Milliband, bring BR back.
Niall O’Dwyer, CardiffYou only have to look at Europe to see why we must do this.
Gareth Williams, ReadingWe have tried privatisation and it clearly hasn’t worked. I’m happy to support this new initiative.
Connor Egan, ChathamScrap privatisation and bring back British Rail.
Jack Johnson, LiverpoolEnd the rip-off of rail passengers. Public ownership now.
Bernard Skinner, WelwynGood luck.
Bryon Bache, CambridgeA brilliant idea – all strength to your arm. Our railways are a disaster.
Steve Wilson, ManchesterPrivatisation doesn’t work. Railways are infrastructure.
Igor Ryabukhin, LondonIt’s disgraceful that yearly tickets cost more than it costs to run an average car and the trains are late at least 50% of the time.
David Arscott, OkehamptonPublic use so public ownership.
Barbara McCartney, KirkcaldyPrivatisation should never have happened.
Gregor Lahounik, Wien, AustriaI’d rather pay in the non-liberalised Austrian market for 80 km £ 1,492/anno (incl. the completely public transport in the Megacity of Vienna). Good Luck for your campaign!
Noni Peters, CreweJust bring it back. It can’t go on the way it is now.
Jack Harding, LondonConsistent fare rises above CPI, without improvements to justify them, while farepayers’ wages remain stagnant. This has to end now.
Steven Parkes, GlasgowBBBR Now. Stop the waste of money going to shareholders and out of the railway industry.
Jaya Agarwal, DelhiSolidarity have no boundaries.
Scott Hollingsworth, LichfieldOur daughter’s father-in-law is a director of SNCF and was gob-smacked visiting us by train. Frequently he asked “Why?” Credible responses are difficult in an asylum.
Elizabeth McManus, BournemouthBring back British Rail.
Dael Gabriel, TorquayWe need one company to oversee the whole of the UK network. Franchising isn’t working. Any profits need to go directly to improving and greatly expanding the network.
Danielle Southcote, LeedsI want a public transport service that works for the benefit of the public users, not private owners.
