This cost isn't sustainable, something has to give.
It's time for the Government to cap the price rises.
It's about time we start paying a reasonable price for the shocking train system that we have.
In 2016/17, 7.2 million passengers experienced delays of at least 30 minutes.
There have been games created making fun of the shoddy service people experience.
This is simply not good enough.
