This is the government attempting to get out of investment in fibre that it should be paying for. Internet use has become an essential part of everyday life now that the government need to make this investment now so that we can keep up with other countries.

And since deregulation of the telecom industry, it is not fair to one or two companies (like BT and Virgin) to pay. BT have said they will do it and only if they can get value from it, which means higher broadband costs for BT customers. If the government pay then the cost is shared amongst all of us.
