It’s daylight robbery what we pay to use the trains for a poor service so anyone that promises to reduce fares would get my vote...

🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥

So he proposes to use tax payers cash to reduce fares...🤔

The tree that keeps on giving!

Few more billions from Amazon and Starbucks.

Is this in the UK Labour Manifesto or another spending promise dreamt up after the event?

Why don't they just say, 'Vote for us! Everything will be free!!' ? They're becoming laughable - everyone knows most of these promises will never happen!!

BBCr4today right now reporting on huge numbers of train strike days coming. This will help, no doubt. Labour is going to tax the car you drive to the station in to pay for the rail fare subsidy.

At last a policy I can get behind well done Corbyn.

Because that will make it profitable and keep it going....
