Will Labour's plan to renationalise rail make train tickets cheaper?
25 Apr 2024
|
www.bigissue.com
|
English
| Public Transport
Labour's plan to renationalise the UK's rail network aims to unify various private rail franchises into a single public operator, excluding rail freight companies and open access operators. The policy is widely supported by the public, unions, and campaign groups, who believe it will simplify the system and improve accountability. Experts argue that railways are a natural monopoly and should be publicly owned to ensure investment in infrastructure. However, the high cost of maintaining rail infrastructure means that ticket prices may not significantly decrease without government subsidies. The Conservative government's proposal for rail reform includes creating a new public sector body, Great British Railways, but retains private sector involvement, which some experts criticize.

Her performance has been crucial in a team that plays an exposed defensive system under manager Gareth Taylor. Kennedy's assured presence has been vital, especially given the team's reliance on a young goalkeeper and the absence of consistent defensive partners. City's recent form and defensive solidity keep them in contention for the league title.
