Tories to pledge 'fastest broadband' in Europe

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8561836.stm


	Quote: The Conservatives have pledged to give Britain the fastest high speed broadband network in Europe, if they win the general election.

Hold on doesn't Sweden and Finland already have 100 Mbit connections in parts of the country and only Virgin are trialling anything comparable.

If I even thought they were capable I'd still be worried about just how they'd go about achieving it :shock:

Given their record on the rail network, the schools and the hospitals, I'd say they were talking out of their arses.

They are all as bad. Neither party have a great record on improving any service. It is all smoke and mirrors.
