Angela Marsh, WiganIt’s in the name – British rail. It should be run by Britain. I’m sick of over-priced tickets for trains that don’t show up.
Oliver Bailey, BagshotEnough is enough.
Roger Luffman, BournemouthA major problem: EU does not allow re-nationalisation. So it’s necessary to leave the EU to bring back BR. I’m game for that, are you?
Tim Delaney, LowestoftIt’s obvious that the railways are being run for short-term private gain and not in the public interest.
Matthew Harris, NewportMore than just British rail should be brought back in to public ownership in my mind.
Luke Norris, BrightonTake it away from profiteers who cherry-pick services and disregard less popular routes and vital investment.
Jonathan Davies, ScunthorpeBring back British Rail. Enough is enough.
Martyn Lyman, LeicesterI support the idea of bringing back British Rail because it is ridiculous to think it’s cheaper to fly than to take the train. We’ve had enough, Cameron.
Gillian Kelly, AmblesideI used to be able to board a train at Oxenholme and go through to Totnes or Penzance. Now I have to haul my luggage off at Birmingham New St. and change. I hate this.
Chris Wainwright, LiverpoolBring back British Rail, as it can’t do any worse than the profit-driven, useless fat cats that are destroying its infrastructure and robbing everyone by doing so.
Peter Jameson, WallsendMy father was a BR employee for several years and was proud to work for them. Sadly he has passed on now but would be mortified at the greed and ineptitude of today
Aaron Parr, AshfordBecause there is enough profiteering going on in the world without having to exploit a rail network.
Jus Sargeant, MiddlesbroughRestore our national rail.
Derek Wagstaff, PlymouthBring back British Rail, run by the people for the people at a profit for the people not private business.
Lynn Cotton, DurhamPlease nationalise the railways. Privatisation has not worked. I want our railways back in public ownership and accountable to the taxpayer.
Simon Jones, BromleyWe need a joined-up train service run in the public interest, owned by the public.
Frank Sander, Buffalo, USAI live in the USA and fully agree with this protest. Public transport should be public.
Robert Nix, LeominsterThe return of British Rail would give the nation fairness and a national transport network.
Dan Marston, NottinghamThis summer we travelled by rail right across Germany with two bicycles. We paid 26 euros each and we bought the tickets the same morning on the platform.
David Ward, LondonEnough is enough.
Melbourne Chadwick, SheffieldRailways are for the people, not the Tory millionaire shareholders.
Gareth Williams, ReadingWe have tried privatisation and it clearly hasn’t worked. I’m happy to support this new initiative.
Wina Yaman, Newcastle-upon-TyneThank you for initiating the movement.
Keith Chambers, SouthportBring back British Rail.
Sion Hughes, LlanerchymeddIt’s about time our railway was taken back from privateers. The farce has gone on for far to long.
William A Edmundson, Atlanta, USATransportation is a public good that must not be a source for private rents. It’s silly to privatise the road system, equally so rail.
Pierre Clary, BarkingI’m all for it but it is as likely as bringing back clause 4 on the Labour party’s manifesto.
Graham Weeden, BedfordTime to ring the changes and scrap the private companies.
Frances Crane, CoventryAt least if it is state-owned we know where the profits will go.
Geoff Proctor, BuryRe-nationalise all our trains, rails, buses, power. Don’t let people get rich from privatising national services.
