Celia Laverick, StanleyPut British Rail back together. Run it with a management separate from MPs but scrutinized by auditors.
John Evans, WestburyI’m a former BR employee at Westbury. Because of privitisation I was made redundant.It was a very sad day.
Simon Iremonger, CambridgeDelay Attribution Board says it all…
Aaron Gray, BathBring back British Rail and the General Post Office, telephone and internet services too.
Fergus Calder, BrightonThe toilets on Southern are often closed and the trains in the morning are always late. The full number of carriages are often short, leading to standing room only.
Waqas Sheikh, LeicesterThey need to lower the fares.
Steven Wilson, HaltwhistleBring back British Rail.
Georgina Watson, CroydonIt’s time to restart investing in a necessary public transport infrastructure that isn’t led by profits and shareholders.
Christina Upton, BeverleyLet’s have a national co-ordinated service with sensible pricing.
John Quinn, DundeeRailways should be run as a public service, not for private profit. The quality of service in European countries is way better as governments invest more in railways.
Milea Michalak, BracknellWhat more needs?
Paul De La Cruz, LeedsUK rail is controlled by directors who never get the train. Give us back our rail services that used to be on time, clean and British.
Colin Snow, ChelmsfordI’m already signed up with East Coast following excellent service between Kings Cross to and from Inverness this year.
John Walker, BristolThe last two decades have been a very expensive farce. It’s been tried, it’s failed. I’m tired of subsidising the private shareholders with my taxes.
Paul ClemensGet people back on the trains and off the roads with reasonable fares, it has to be cheaper than forever expanding roads.
Marylyn Edwards, TonbridgeThe railways and all public transport should be for the people, not for profits.
Alison Hall, WarwickLet’s sort this out so that we aren’t paying different amounts on different lines for the same journey (Birmingham to London for example).
Hector, CheshirePrivatisation has created a railway that in every conceivable way is truly an abomination.
Derek Sands, HarwichThe problem with privatisation is the amount of money going out of taxpayers’ pockets into those of shareholders.
Ken Smith, LiverpoolBritish Rail needs to be brought back, re-opening many disused tracks that are still lying about in the UK.
Sarah Williams, FavershamHere we have HS1, which is great if you want to go to St Pancras, but our other services have been downgraded and, of course, HS costs more.
Ashley Wells, LoughboroughI have to live with Southern Rail every day. They are terrible. I want a system that is primarily about serving passengers, not shareholders.
Garreth Maguire, PrestatynWe need railways that are owned by the state and public passengers and freight. They should never have got rid of British Rail and we want it back.
George Sanderson, LeicesterBring back British Rail.
Tim Lander, WorthingBritish Rail was one of the things that put the Great in Great Britain. There’s not many things left that do.
Anthony Ellison, GreenhitheWhat an excellent campaign. Get rid of these vile profit making companies who are ruining the railways.
Annette Baker, LondonThe railways should never have left public ownership.
Steve Brown, Newcastle Upon TyneA shocking service. I’m sick of sending compensation forms and complaining for late running or cancelled trains. It costs a fortune and isn’t reliable. BBBR.
Patrick O’Connor, CanterburyThe current arrangements do not in any way constitute a ‘joined-up’ system which works properly.
John Selby, LondonI’m fed up with the mess of franchises that all seem to rip us off.
