I was away in Bedford for the weekend, and travelled up via Thameslink on Friday morning. I had used split ticketing so my return journey was supposed to be Bedford to St Pancras, and then St Pancras to Brighton.
I wasn't feeling too good yesterday evening, the hotel bed wasn't comfortable...
I never vote for a party. I judge each government on their leaders & policies at the time. I've voted for all three main parties in my lifetime, and spoilt my paper a couple of times.
You have done your best and can do no more. The sooner this lot get out of government the better. I travelled back from Havant on Monday with two disabled friends. The guard couldn't have been kinder and more helpful.
The disabled have been sold down the river by GTR and the Tories.
I was a bit dischuffed on Friday afternoon when my train was 11 minutes late. Another 4 minutes wouldn't have made much difference to me, but I could have claimed.
Yes, that was the point. There were no staff on the platform, and no guard. Fortunately the passengers alerted the driver. This happened 16 months ago but no publicity about it? I know it's SE Rail, but it's a serious incident.
The disabled commuters are having a wheelchair protest at the House of Commons today for fair accessibility.
