Elizabeth Blood, BuxtonLet’s have the trains for the public, not shareholders etc.
Michael Sheppard, BlackpoolSooner the better!
J B Barrington, YorkAll the railways should be re-nationalised. There should never be a profit made from a public service.
Bert Bell, BarnstapleA cost-effective and efficient service can be achieved by a single provider of a nationalised rail service.
Sophia James, ReadingThis is long overdue. Private profits never belong in public services.
Chris Poulton, LondonBritain saw the birth of railways, but since privatisation the system has steadily declined and fallen well behind other countries. It’s in the public interest to improve.
Steven Lock, WareRail privatisation is for the benefit of shareholders and people like Richard Branson.
Patrick Dunlop, CambridgeI want proper public services that don’t have the extra charge of having to supply a profit.
Jean Hall, DerbyshireWe deserve a National Rail Service.
June Sutherby, PocklingtonPrivatisation for profit is obscene, selfish, greedy and undemocratic.
Maggie Kraus, Saltburn-by-the-SeaThe system is at present fragmented, expensive and often badly maintained. The services are ill-co-ordinated and not run for the convenience of the passengers.
Sue Macfadyen, HaddingtonWe need a rail service that is not at the mercy of profiteering companies.
David Marc Owen, BangorPrices are too high and very poor service with blocked toilets. Bring back British Rail now.
Roy Banks, FeatherstoneMy trains are currently late, noisy, rickety, too cold, too hot, invisible, cramped, unsafe, overcrowded, dirty, unmanned, smelly, expensive and old.
Colton McKenna, KilwinningThe British people deserve British Rail back.
Simon Iremonger, CambridgeDelay Attribution Board says it all…
Gregory Lewis, LondonThe privatisation of our rail services has proved to be nothing but a disaster. Re-nationalise them now.
Kim Fergus, WirralIf trains are re-nationalised, I believe fares will be cheaper for ordinary people and public organisations. It would be better for health, environment and personal finance.
Craig Armstrong, WarringtonI pledge to add my weight to the fight to put our national rail service back into the hands of people not business.
Robert Davison, NewtownardsBring the railways back into public ownership. They are a national asset, not something to be traded and put into the hands of foreign railway operators.
Alan Summerhayes, BristolStop wasting money on a poor service. Bring back BR now.
Elizabeth Richardson, Milton KeynesBritish Rail wasn’t perfect but at least you understood the ticket pricing and a single was cheaper than a return.
Karen Orosky, BedfordPrivatisation of so much in the UK is destroying this country.
James Connor, CumbernauldWhy have we given it all away to foreign companies?
Alan Hird, BasingstokeThat Tory bodged-up privatisation was absolutely diabolical and wrong.
Peter Taggart, WorthingThe constant disregard for passengers is disgusting. Trains miss stops leaving passengers waiting just to arrive on time. And there’s no fines.
Patricia Bartley, YorkThe railway network is too important to be in private hands.
Honor Melissa Hieatt, ColchesterBring back British Rail.
Ross Johnson, WorthingBritish Rail was stolen from us. It should be re-nationalised without compensation.
