        Labour were in power for 10 years and you did NOTHING to reduce rail fares! We do not forget, we do not forgive!

        Generally, richer people use trains. Poorer people use buses/coaches, we aren't travelling to metropolitan cities for work, we're in the factorys on the industrial estates. If you re-nationalise the railways, the poor are going to be subsidising the rich's travel. NO THANKS.

        What the fuck is a factory? Most of the poor are working in shitty retail and call centers in the cities we can't afford to live in. It's not the 60s anymore pal.

        My monthly train pass has gone up from £100 to £103. This is an outrage. Who can I write to?

        How much would fares fall by if Labour Re-nationalised the railway then?

        Pathetic it works out at about 50p per day at most on a season ticket. If wages weren't suppressed by immigrants and rents and taxes higher because of immigration there wouldn't be a problem

        Rubbish. Labour should be concentrating on keeping us in the EU and increasing our standard of living and wages instead of pushing this sort of drivel.

        Think it’s time for a PASSENGER strike.... empty rail stations across the UK. Businesses lay blame at no10 for commuters not going into work.
