Stop Southern Rail operator from increasing rail fares from January 2017.
The service on the Southern network has been riddled by industrial action throughout this year, resulting in major changes to train timetables. Most routes are operating massively reduced services with cancellations across the board, every single day. Why should we pay more for this non -service?
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The price of rail fares on Southern Rail is the responsibility of Southern Rail, not of the Government.
You could sign the petition below, which asks the Government to strip Southern Rail of its franchise and take control of the rail system. This would then allow the Government to set the price of rail fares.
