Sir Keir Starmer vows to renationalise Britain's railways

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer says his government would transfer the 10 remaining privately run rail networks to public ownership “well within the first term” by folding existing private passenger rail contracts into a new body as they expire.

His comments come during a visit to a train manufacturer Hitachi in Newton Aycliffe, Co Durham.
