BT is really pulling all the strings on this that is cutting off any advancement by other providers - paraphrasing here, but what I read, BT wholesale, that all none-cable providers have to go through is crippling development cos they force them through their older switches while BT as a provider themselves use their new exchanges. And lo and behold any provider that wants to install their own equipment in the BT Wholesale centres....

anti-trust suites are thrown in the bin, meanwhile mainland europe bband grows through the same principle but with a lot more regulations preventing ex-monopoly holder regulation.

BT still haven't learnt that it may well be their cables other providers are using, but those cables where installed with tax-payer's money, which is why they need to be opened up 100%.
