Renationalise the railways? No, allow someone else to make a profit (or try to).
Dutch Railways pulling out of running trains in England (and some bus routes in London) because they're no longer making enough money to subsidise fares in Holland!
"UK: Dutch state passenger operator NS has announced a management buy-out of its Abellio UK rail and bus business. New company Transport UK Group Ltd will take over the East Midlands Railway, West Midlands Trains, Greater Anglia and Merseyrail passenger rail businesses and more than 50 London bus routes by the end of the year.
"The announcement came as NS presented its half-yearly results on August 23. NS said it changed its international strategy in 2018 to require foreign activities to contribute to the interests of Dutch travellers, and with Abellio UK no longer of strategic importance it decided to withdraw from the UK to focus on services within, to and from the Netherlands."
