Daniel Moorcroft, BoltonPublic transport must be taken back into public hands. We are paying above and beyond for a poor service. The service is heavily subsidised with high ticket charges.
Michael Miles, SwindonThe people who pay are the passengers. Look after them and bring back British Rail. Even blue and grey coaches are welcome!
Philip Kane, LondonNeeds to be done sooner rather than later. Most expensive public transport in Europe.
Alex Bailey, Craven ArmsPublic transport must serve the interests of the public.
James Robinson, WindsorI don’t see why it was ever privatised in the first place. It only lead to higher prices and a poorer service. The government’s purse hasn’t even benefitted.
Mark Pedlar, WakefieldIt’s time to take back control of our railways.
Angela Brown, Haywards HeathHave one railway company, British Rail, for the safety and ease of travel that we should be able to expect.
Pete Dass, BristolWhy is UK public transport so expensive, worn and dirty? Just look at Europe; they have got it right – cheap, clean, nationalised public transport. Bring it back!
Peter Harris, SouthamptonRail transport is a national asset. Treat it like one.
John French, LiverpoolI’m an ex British Rail driver. I left when Major sold off your railways to his friends.
Alan Hay, NorthumberlandTake back the franchises David Cameron. You know it makes sense.
Philip Edwards, LeedsBring the railways and the power companies back to the people.
Lorraine Bond, DunstableIt was the best in the world. Never mind shareholders. Give it back to the public.
Denis Prickett, EghamOpen your eyes and get it back in public ownership.
Christopher Davies, Kirkby in AshfieldPrivatisation has failed, and despite being in private hands the government still has to cough up money for the railways. Nationalise and make tax money spent worth it.
Peter Worth, NottinghamThe whole rail system is a mess. Bring back British Rail.
Roger Averill, NorthamptonThe railways are already nationalised, but it’s the people in Europe who own our railways. Take them back!
Janis Bradshaw, WolverhamptonA national rail system run efficiently for the convenience of the people, not for the profit and benefit of the few.
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.
Alexander Pike, HastingsI totally agree.
Noelle Berney, Newcastle-upon-TyneWhy must everything British be privatised or sold to other nations?
Amy Leach, LeedsRailways are simply not a service that can be run for private profit. There’s only one line there, so competition isn’t a natural feature.
David Moncur, DundeeScotland. We are badly served by trains.
Simon Tucker, SwindonPassengers, not customers. Cost not profit.
Richard Balchin, Saffron WaldenBrexit finally allows us to take back control over our nation’s railways. Brexiteers want a great British Railway back.
Chris George, BristolRenationalise now.
Carl Nickson, LiverpoolIt’s about time people over profits was something we hear every single day in politics.
Keith Batchelor, BirminghamWhy should the taxpayer subsidise the franchised companies and therefore the shareholders. Re-nationalise now and stop the shareholder gravy train.
Philip Feakin, LondonWe need a railway that is run for the benefit of the people not a few multi millionaires.
Tania Tucker, Newcastle-upon-TynePrivatisation has failed. Poor service poor value – need I say more! Also as an example East Coast mainline was fantastic last time it was put back under state control.
