    Keith - no I do not but the price hikes are as much about government imposed green levies than anything else. I have said before, an end to such levies imposed by both governments and the EU and more competition in the market is what is needed not the creation of a new monopoly.

    As far as rail is concerned the official figures show more people using rail than ever before. Yes, it is expensive, I do not disagree but the alternative is what? Higher and higher government subsidy, in other words a bigger deficit and more debt or larger spending cuts to accommodate them. A nationalised system will just mean less efficiency and higher costs to cover via subsidy and fares.

    You have rose coloured specs for the old BR - all the complaints people make about rail today and more were made then. The trains were filthy and are far better today as is punctuality.

    (I didn't see you by the way!!!!)
