Broadband in more than seven in ten UK homes
More than seven out of every ten UK homes now have a broadband connection through BT or Virgin’s networks. According to those companies’ latest figures, 19 million UK premises use broadband. At 71%, that is a greater proportion than many other Western economies like the US, France or Germany. The Government wants to see broadband speeds of at least 2Mbps in every place in the UK by 2015. The more thorny issue surrounds the roll-out of next-generation super-fast broadband, as BT and Virgin Media only want to cover locations where it is commercial viable for them to do the roll-out.
