LET'S RE-CLAIM OUR RAILWAYS

For some time now I have boycotted the East Coast Line when travelling to London- too expensive, unreliable, and now running out of track as the rail unions protest at its profiteering.
In the autumn, it will be , temporarily we are told, , nationalised. It's blindingly obvious what the answer should be to the execrable track-record of National Express and other private companies.
The only answer, and what a great move electorally it would be for Labour, is to take the railways permanently back into public hands. As the editorial in the Morning Star indicates below.
