Is renationalising rail a positive step forward?

We ask people in Birmingham

00:00Yeah, so, rail nationalisation is like one of the key things for me, voting, I'm a Labour

00:06Party member myself, I genuinely think it runs better in the public sector because how

00:13can you have a strong public service with private companies who are only concerned about

00:20driving profits when essentially they've got a captive market, they have a complete monopoly,

00:24it's not like you can go elsewhere, so the idea of you've got competition is a complete

00:28fallacy in my eyes. Yeah, I use the trains all the time, rarely on time, there's always

00:35a delay for something.

00:38The way I'm looking at it is I always enjoyed taking the trains myself and if something

00:44is working, don't change it.

00:46We actually came on the train today from Rugby and we had to go to Nuneaton to get here but

00:55we probably got here quicker, so we got there in the end.
