RMT slams "legalised racketeering" as East Anglia rail franchise process kicks off today.
General Secretary Mick Cash said
"This is another spin of the wheel in the great rail franchise lottery with the same bunch of spivs, speculators and failures queuing up for another chance to rob the travelling public blind.
"The only solution to this legalised rail franchise racketeering is full public ownership and an end to private exploitation. "
