High Peak Liberal Democrats
Incredible news today that the Government have decided to Sack Northern!
On the Lakes and Furness lines we've had to endure years of chaos and cancellations, and at one point we even had to step in and run our own service when Northern simply gave up.
I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who supported our campaign, whether joining us on our protest walk from Windermere to Oxenholme, or signing our petition that we presented to 10 Downing Street.
But we are under no illusion that, while the chances of the service improving under Arriva were zero, problems on our rail lines will not automatically disappear.
The Government need to put their money where their mouth is and make sure that we are not left in the same situation where our railways are run by a company without the sufficient staff to run a regular service.
We will continue to hold the Government's feet to the fire to make sure they keep their promises to rail passengers across the North.
