Susan Turner, YorkThe present system needs to change.
Lawrence Roberts, WinchesterOver-priced fares are killing the country.
Vivienne Aldred, PrestonPublic transport should be owned by the public.
Helen Kenner, LondonI absolutely agree it is time to stop the ridiculous subsidisation of shareholder profits in an industry where operators effectively operate as monopolies.
Maureen Raud, TeignmouthThe time has come to tell the Government that we’ve had enough of all this privatisation that doesn’t work for anyone except the fat cats.
David Jones, WidnesHappy to join the petition. The service at present for passengers is not good enough and prices are too high for the poor quality service.
Sheena Ratcliffe, RichmondEast Coast Line is excellent – all our railways should be run by the country for the country.
Mark Jude, LincolnI think once it’s 100,000 it’s heard in the House of Commons.
Alex Lewis, BangorDo we not owe this to the future generations? I miss the scene of an InterCity liveried train whizzing past the rural coastlines. British Rail all the way.
Nigel Blake, YorkPrivatisation costs the taxpayer more than BR ever did and is corrupt and inefficient.
Ray Grinney, DealRemove the strata of capitalist greed that impoverishes the rest of us who are not shareholders.
Ashley Rawcliffe, HuddersfieldFor the people not the fat cat’s.
Marina Matosic, BoltonMy commute from Bolton to Manchester is beyond belief. It is far worse than any journey on the London Underground.
Richard Antonel, LondonPublic services should be nationalised.
Alan Harrison, WalsallRail is a natural monopoly and pseudo-competition is a nonsense. Bring back BR.
David Curley, LondonWe absolutely need a unified, affordable national system/service.
Tim Gray, GlasgowI just want to be able to get to work. I live in a developed country. Is this really too much to ask? Rail privatisation was the worst idea ever.
Ronald Donnelly, Burgess HillWhy should train profits go to overseas investors and not recycled into the system?
Michael Denholm, DunbarIt is obscene that Government revenue support to train operating companies goes directly to shareholder pockets, instead of being invested in the service.
John Appelqvist, ScarboroughSmash all privatisation.
Thomas Lloyd-Mead, BournemouthNetwork Rail has been a pivotal downfall in transportation and commuting in this country for far too long.
Sharon Bixby, LondonI sign because this is the only way forward.
Win Gibson, Newcastle-upon-TyneModern infrastructure is vital to economic growth and cannot be left to short term aims of the private sector.
Jacob Tong, LondonAbsolute Economic Sense
Roger Kilvington, ManchesterBritish Rail was very bad in its day but we can do much, much better and we should try again.
Mark Turnock, LondonIt’s not just fares that are shambolic, the state of train manufacturing in the UK is shambolic too.
Jill Coakley, LiverpoolOur train system is a shambles.
Phil Mason, ManchesterNo to HS2. Yes to a decent Liverpool-Leeds line.
Rebecca Devitt, SouthamptonRe-nationalise the railways and stop creaming off a profit for people wealthy enough not to need it.
Alys Penfold, BournemouthWe have the highest rail fares in Europe. Do we need another reason to re-nationalise the railways? In support of the Green Party.
