Brian McCauley, ShorehamNo more.
Eric Lackford, LargsThe British travelling public have been sold down the river by treacherous governments. Nationalise now.
Dawn Price, NottinghamBritish Rail should be owned by the people.
Hannah Sawtell, NottinghamI am very upset by today’s news about the East and West Coast mainlines. Yet another example of business and greed being more important than the needs of the nation.
Madeleine Howell, BathPrivatising the railways was the most stupid political decision after Beeching’s Axe. It’s time to do something about it.

Sheepa Ahmed, LondonThey are ripping us off.
Nick Harris, NewburyThis will astound you, but I am a Tory supporter signing this petition. Do not write my party off; some of us see sense too.
