Summarization
Alexandra Bulat, a Romanian County Councillor in the UK, has discussed how expensive train rides in the UK are, with a 24-minute journey from Reading to Paddington costing nearly 50 pounds and a 1-hour journey from Market Harborough to London costing over 100 pounds. Bulat believes that train rides are too expensive and that private ownership rather than public ownership is to blame. Regional public transport also needs to be improved to make costs more affordable.

| 1625048975089840131 | @alexandrabulat It’s cheaper for me to fly from Stanstead to our Dublin office than it is for me to commute via train from Peterborough to our Cambridge office. It’s no wonder so many folks prefer to work from home https://t.co/R5VGsbGDK3 | 2 |
| 1625101890106060800 | Our @alexandrabulat is speaking at #CityHall today on migration panel on belonging. Alex shared her immigration journey and the need for voting rights for all for real belonging in our home! 🗳️ Practical tips: - inform yourself - inform others - campaign together! https://t.co/XFMWOU6Ugn | 2 |
| 1625411485907156993 | @alexandrabulat @NOCCC2022 For the simple reason that politicians are concentrating on making car use as unattractive, expensive and inconvenient as public transport rather than the other way round. | 1 |
| 1625062515121037313 | @alexandrabulat It’s becoming restrictive to use the train. I’d like to take my child (over 11yo) from Cambridge to London for the day during half term and it can be stupidly expensive… not to mention how hard it is to get to the station by public transport. | 1 |
| 1625048264796999681 | @alexandrabulat It’s ridiculous how expensive trains are in this country. | 1 |
| 1625069793492537345 | @alexandrabulat My uni days from Leicester to London. Essentially get an advance ticket or go bankrupt! https://t.co/jl7WlhrJhV | 1 |
| 1625053497841295362 | @alexandrabulat Every single time I go abroad I come back amazed and how good, well run, and inexpensive public transport is abroad. Ever European city and town I've ever been to has had infinitely better and cheaper transport than the UK. Especially the trains! 🤬 | 1 |
| 1625112018247188481 | @maggiebarradell @alexandrabulat Yes, whereas London to Brighton return, similar time/distance from £20.40. Ipswich really does get stung on train fares. Especially as for years there have been so many engineering closures. | 0 |

| 1625060999354097664 | @alexandrabulat £47 from Bedford (same distance from London as Cambridge) - we clearly have a real bargin - now, on what shall I spend my £3 ? | 14 |

| 1625415180472426496 | @alexandrabulat And they view people’s time as having no value. It’s fine if you have to wait for a ‘bus that then takes three times as long as driving. | 7 |
| 1625905234424868864 | @alexandrabulat @DanielZeichner Unfollowed. You are campaigning for a party that has finally abandoned any pretence of standing up for the working class and betrayed it's socialist ideals. | 6 |
| 1625047956691816449 | @alexandrabulat A very good point. Also cutting trains and routes due to alleged lower use, with prices being ao prohibitively high and cancellations frequent just makes it worse! | 6 |
