Hugh Sharp, CramlingtonI don’t believe in privatisation and never did.
Andrew Duncan, ChathamRail for the people not profit.
Duncan Cumming, LondonOver-crowded, over-priced, inefficient trains are not good enough!
Innes Ross, KilmarnockIconic.
Lisa Morley, MargateI want value for money: £4,000 a year and no seat.
Clare Whiting, BrightonYou know it makes sense.
Rik Manning, StroudA railway network based on service not profit. I want a truly inclusive rail service so the average citizen can travel at a reasonable price.
Wes Taylor, HavantKeep Britain British.
Gordon Roberts, Stratford-upon-AvonI worked through the Railtrack years. Enough said I think. Bring back BR.
Gillian Morgan, DoncasterRail transport and its infrastructure should be nationally-owned and run in a cost-effective way, not making profit for shareholders.
Steven O’Neill, ArmaghBring an end to private ownership of our network. It would mean lower fares and save for the nation.
Barbara Cowle, WirralYes to public ownership of British Rail. We have sold off too many of our utilities that should be owned by the taxpayers. Water, Gas, Electricity are all owned by foreigners.
Ayse Smith, OrpingtonWe need our rail system back in the public sector so private companies can not rip us off every year. Its getting to the point that I cannot afford to get to work.
Kenneth Marshall, SpaldingFares are a rip-off. They should be reduced and charged on a mile-on-mile basis regardless of route.
Adam Bloy, LondonService not profit!
Pete and Nikki Perry, StevenageAs a lifelong campaigner for social justice and the environment, my wife and I believe strongly that the railways should be re-nationalised, along with all public services.
Duncan Baillie, KilmarnockI have never felt that a national railway network should be in the hands of separate companies. The service varies so much between them and there is little co-ordination.
Khalid Talati, ManchesterIf prices keep going up, eventually people won’t be able to afford to get to work. Nationalise the railways now.
Howard Sanders, CrawleyThis situation is inefficient and costly. West Coast would be better off in state hands.
Mike Hoy, DronfieldI think the railways should be nationalised without compensation.
Mike Attewell, DurhamIf enough mice squeak the fat cats might be disturbed – a bit.
Richard Quigley, BirminghamPublic service not a profit making industry.
Martin Percy, WellingboroughPrivatisation of BR was one of the biggest mistakes ever. Re-nationalise now.
Michael Atkinson, SheffieldThe privatised network results in a sterile environment in which profit comes before anything else.
Pam Heynes, CarnforthIt was doing okay, so why was it changed?
Dennis Blair, HarrogateNationalise now. Undo Tory damage to a British institution.
Alex Granville, LondonWe’re paying for the service and for the profits for the rich.
Charlotte Fregona, HarpendenTime to get value for the daily commute. That’s the way to go.
Pauline StephensThings have gone too far with this non-integrated railway with money lost to shareholders and individuals which could have been better used.
Jeremy Wildeman, ExeterThe service is terrible, confusing and incredibly expensive. Fix this awful rail system and help the UK work.
