"Our Railway, on track for a brighter future"
Wednesday 19th June 7.30
Friends Meeting House
Derby
All welcome.
With
Nadine Rae, from the TSSA railway union, and Peter Robinson from Derby
Climate Coalition, both active in Action For Rail.
Last week Action For Rail launched The Great Train Robbery an independent report by the CRESC team at the University of Manchester, part-funded by the TUC. This got widespread media coverage. Have a look at the piece in the Guardian by Aditya Chakrabortty the Guardian which exposes the Richard Branson as the supreme carpet-bagger.
At Action For Rail are organising a seminar on Tuesday,
at the TUC week, with Professor Karel Williams from CRESC and a range
of other academics, MPs, think tanks, unions and researchers to get
together to consider where we go with rail and what the options are for
public ownership and other alternatives to the current system which is
clearly not working for passengers or taxpayers. Nadine and Peter are
attending the seminar and will feed snippets into the discussion.
