BBC Radio Berkshire

I spoke on BBC Radio Berkshire about this on Tuesday 21 Jan 2020, and reiterated what is said this petition. Hopefully by talking at 17:20 on the radio word has reached more people. BBC Radio Berkshire managed to contact a spokesperson for GWR who stated, GWR are pulling out of the easit scheme because they can use that money better elsewhere to encourage people to use trains. When the radio reporter pointed out that by pulling out of the scheme GWR are discouraging people from using the trains, GWR's spokesperson's response was that we can buy Advance Tickets and that annual season tickets are already discounted. The former does not work for commuters and we are already spending £1000's per year on annual season tickets for a sub-par train service.

We are now just over 650 signatories, which is great! Let's keep spreading the word.
