Daz NezThousands of good souls together making hundreds of small actions in the right direction towards equality and freedom and away from hierarchy.
Samuel Geddes, SouthamptonThe right incentives and motives for efficient high performance can be executed from within public hands, not just by the groans of shareholders.
Steve Lawlor, PurleyWe need a proper railway service, not the one we have at the moment.
Gareth Bridges, SwindonBring back British Rail.
Andrew Conway, GlasgowProfit for the people, not for the select few who hike the rates up.
Clifford Salmon, LlanfyrnachBring back the old branch lines as well.
Chris Purser, ThirskOur railways cost us more in subsidy. Running and upgrading them is more expensive and millions are siphoned off in profits. Look at East Coast for proof of this.
Gareth Brown, RugbyServices by the people for the people, let’s not stop here. Bring the energy and water companies back into public ownership as well.
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.
Toffee Green, BristolI like trains.
Noordad Aziz, Great HarwoodThe franchising system doesn’t work and needs to be nationalised.
Martin Bailey, York20 years of poor service, extortionate fares and lame excuses. It’s time for re-nationalisation.
Nik Walker, PrestonEnough of the experiment – it has comprehensively failed abysmally. Return the railroads to the customers.
Andrew Howes, WinchesterAlso save our post and re-nationalise water and save the NHS.
Mark Dawson, CarshaltonTrains are public transport. It is obscene for a private company to run them for profit.

Paul Woodburn, ManchesterStop the corporates exploiting commuters
Paul Harrop, Watton-at-Stone, HertsBring our railways back into public ownership so that the passengers (not customers) can have a decent, value-for-money service instead of being exploited by private profit.
Paul Reid, LiverpoolTrain operators don’t give a toss about the service they offer, their customers or value for money.
Andree Mehew, LondonBecause it’s the best.
Kevin Morris, BradfordTotally necessary.
J Miller, BerkhamstedWhy can’t we all have a service as good as the nationally-owned East Coast line?
Kathy Barnes, DurhamThis idea needs as much support as possible.
Jan Woodhouse, North WalshamI grew up with British Rail and the mess we’re in now should never have been allowed to happen.
Paco Terrasa, RotterdamThe British railway system is an awful experience. It can and should be done much better. You invented the railway system: claim it back.
Harry Keane, Gillingham, KentPublic services should be run for the public good, not private profit.
Sue Ahrens, WatfordIt’s clearly sensible.
Laura Strathearn, SheffieldRe-nationalisation of BR is of paramount and urgent importance for the improvement and cohesion of a patchy and unsatisfactory system.
