Renationalise all railway services

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to purchase the railway and stop with the constant price rise of railway services. As we are all sick to death with the constant cancellation of trains.
I do not believe that these privatised railway services truly understand the prices that they have set for their journeys and Uni Students are most affected with these extremely high prices and someone needs to tell them enough is enough and I believe the government must do this.
