Labour backs plans to return railway network to public control

The changes would amount to the biggest overhaul of the train system
since British Rail was broken up in the mid-1990s and be seen as a
deliberate pitch by Ed Miliband's party for millions of "commuter
votes" in key marginal seats ahead of the next election.


Will we be getting back the curling sandwiches and the Winter of
Discontent?
