Brian Wilkinson, Newcastle-upon-TyneI want an end to privatised rail and return to British Rail.
Steve Barrett, NottinghamIt’s a disgrace at present.
James Goddard, LondonBring back BR. Great stuff.
Jim Edwards, RydeEvidence clearly shows that fragmentation has led to its being harder to use trains and much more expensive. Bring back British Railways.
Helen Drew, Tyne and WearRail travel should be affordable for all, not just the rich.
Daniel Edwards, HurstpierpointI can’t even get to work due to planned engineering works, nevermind the unplanned disruption! Why do we pay for this utter rubbish?
Linda Peaker, WakefieldIn line with other countries, our rail network should be owned by us, not by foreigners. Who owns the rest of the EU’s rail network? They own their own, so should we.
Lauren Healey, NewcastleThere are some things too important to be privatised. Cheap and reliable public transport is one of them.
John Davies, YorkEast coast is an example of what a good job a publicly owned rail company can do.
David Haxell, BrightonTime to end the profit-based railway and take it back.
Geoff Gilham, SittingbourneNationalisation needs to happen.
Andy Bond, EdinburghIt’s the worst value rail system in the world.
Aidan Shabaily, LiverpoolPrivate services do not work. Services should be government run as public services, not for private profit.
Robert Sellers, LondonThe government privatised the profit and nationalised the debt.
Steven Benson, YorkPut customer service before profit and stop this ideological nonsense.
Martin Yeomans, ThurrockI’m sick of non-running or late running trains. Track work, track work is a mantra of C2C.
Anna Doughty, ConwyPlease bring back the unified system that made so much sense and ran a much better service.
Sheila Rowhan, LondonPut people before profit.
Pippa Smith, BristolI am a full-time support worker, working 42 hrs/week on minimum wage. Put simply, I cannot afford to use the train.
Trevor Lewis, LondonReturn all public services back to people, ownership and management.
Michele Webber, ColchesterNational travel should be cheap and affordable and subsidised by government. The gains to the economy would more than pay for it in my opinion.
Nik Walker, PrestonEnough of the experiment – it has comprehensively failed abysmally. Return the railroads to the customers.
James Cowen, YorkI would like to see British Rail brought back into public ownership and run as a business.
John Walker, BradfordPeople, not profit.
Diane Johnstone, CleethorpesI want complete re-nationalisation of the railways.
Gareth Davies, ReadingBring back all public infrastructure into public ownership and reduce top civil service wages to a maximum of £50,000 per annum.
Gregor ThomsonEnough is enough. The current situation needs to change.
Daniel Hoing, SheffieldPrivate companies are parasites and need stopping in all areas but the railways is a start. This country for the people of this country.
