By bringing our trains back into public ownership, we can take decisions based on passenger needs rather than on profit margins – we’ve frozen fares too to get even more folk on our trains and saving cash.

As we celebrate the one-year anniversary of the SNP scrapping peak rail fares, it’s brilliant to see passenger numbers have soared.
That’s what you get from the SNP under John Swinney’s trusted leadership – real action to help put more money in people’s pockets as bills continue to spiral under the Labour Party.
Last year over 90m journeys were taken as people across the country took advantage of cheaper fares and it is absolutely right we continue to support people through the Westminster made cost of living crisis.
This shows what is possible when decisions about Scotland are made here in Scotland, for Scotland. Just imagine how much further we could go with the fresh start of independence.
