Like many others, I suspect, I find it hard to stomach the train companies being allowed to increase fares again.
Those of us who commute from the South Coast to London have suffered an appalling service, less convenient train times and already exceedingly high fares.
We have no alternative means of getting to work so this is, frankly, daylight robbery.
If you compare the service we receive with the service on the Continent (I travelled by train in Spain this year at much lower cost and with greater convenience and pleasure), it seems impossible to understand how our train fares can be allowed to rise again.
