Lorraine Martland, Milton KeynesWe need to bring the railways back to the people. It’s getting so that we can’t afford to go to work.
Jack Johnson, LiverpoolEnd the rip-off of rail passengers. Public ownership now.
Emma Jackson, BrightonMy anxiety is through the roof because of constant delays. I’ve missed important work meetings, weddings and holidays and pay through the nose for it.
Veronica Hobbs, Wootton, BedfordshireThe railways have never been the same since they were privatised.
Paul Bright, BournemouthWe’re bringing back Great British Rail with Sir Jeremy Corbyn in 2017 to make the UK OK.
Trish Harewood, GodmanchesterWe need an integrated system run by one body with even prices, not bargain basement for some and exorbitant for the workers.
Wendy Venters, FraserburghBy signing this I am not showing any political allegiance – just a preference for Tunisian rail travel which is much superior to Britain’s. This must mean something.
Sven Hanson, BrightonYes, and bring back buffet cars as well.
Brian Ellison, WiganNever have so many of the British public been conned by so few.
Kyle Perkins, TotnesAs a person who frequents public transport for personal and business reasons, I’m appalled at the high prices, bad conditions and shoddy policies.
Linda Harte, BourneIf the right (qualified but not greedy) staff at the top were to be appointed, we the British public could have a well run, efficient, and affordable train service.
Kaeren Daunt-Jones, RochesterAlthough it was by no means perfect as BR, it was a whole lot better than now. Employ real railway people at the top too, not business Muppets who don’t understand.
John Salter, ConsettThe success of the East Coast franchise in public ownership shows just what can be achieved. All the rail franchises should be taken back into public ownership.
Mike FriendSome say British Rail failed the nation but what really failed the nation was the government, who took the easy way out.
David Eldridge, WallingfordI’ve had enough of this privatised rail charade, costing taxpayers more and more. East Coast Direct Rail is the right approach. Re-open strategic lines, e.g. Oxford-Cambridge.
Florence Arthur, EdinburghIt is not working, late trains and profits going to faceless people, where it should be taking care of passengers. There are not enough carriages for folk to sit down.
Mary Taylor, LondonJeremy Corbyn as PM will re-nationalise the railways and I’m looking forward to it.
Bernadette Potts, ManchesterPrivatisation sells the UK by the pound. Virtually all sales have been made under Tory governments. They’ve all but sold the NHS now.
Matt Rogerson, LlanelliPublic sector for public transport.
Lyn Mackfall, DoncasterBritish Rail – the clue is in the name. Network Rail and the private rail companies should be under one organisation.
Jane Topliss, DerbyThey’re robbing taxpayers blind.
Philip Kingston, WokingI completely agree. Tickets are over-priced and service isn’t good.
Robert Pankhurst, St AlbansPrivatisation of public services has been a disaster (except for the fat cats). Let’s take back as our own.
Jennifer David, Southend-on-SeaWe’ve just had enough – 10 years too much.
Karl McKay, TorquayTransport should be made to help the country not make a few a huge profit.
Daniel Carr, BirminghamNational action now!
Matthew Stirland, DoncasterThis is longer overdue. Bring back British Rail.
Peter Turnbull, Turners HillAs it now costs more taxpayers’ money (in real terms) with privatisation, it will be cheaper to re-nationalise (and much better.)
Julie Blunden, HarrogateWe should have a national rail system without a single doubt.
