exactly and not just this one, many more to follow to pay off the burgeoning national debt.... created by the few and paid for by the many.

Well it is about time we got the Dialup users on Broadband so it is a good cause. :D

This is a bummer! There's no chance us rural types will get hi-seped broadband now. Market forces, don't make me laugh! The nearest cable (delivery places chosen by market forces) is so far away I don't even know which town its in!

Well Virgin Media just announced they are trialing a new way of doing fiber layout cheaper, on the phone line poles rather then in the group, and this is intended for rural areas, so have faith.

IF being the big word which honestly most don't believe will happen, most likely is hung Parliament or conservatives get in.

Every time I hear the words "hung Parliament" I get an image of gallows being constructed in Westminster :devilish:

What are phone line poles? The ones in our village are fed from a BT line from another village. So no cable in the ground from Virgin then no Virgin Cable!
