Agree

Yes, privatise the operation of the trains and tracks

This option aligns with UKIP's inclination towards privatization and deregulation as part of their broader economic policy preferences. Privatizing both the operation of trains and tracks could be seen as a comprehensive approach to reducing state involvement in the economy.

Agree

Yes

Slightly agree

Yes, but allow more local control

While UKIP supports decentralization in the context of EU governance, their specific policies on local control of privatized services are less clear. They might support this as a compromise position, promoting both privatization and local autonomy.

Disagree
