Cable is not in a dire state, just people in VM dont know how to run a company (neil mainly who has destroyed it).

BT and Sky have asked for access for years and it's never been allowed because the government know it would detrimental to cable.

Things are different now, we wasnt so behind back then.

BT didnt finance their own infrastructure VM did big difference. Why should BT who already hold a monopoly be allowed further monpoly by accessing VM's fibre network.

VM bought out other networks for the most part...
Why should VM who have a monopoly over cable/fibre be allowed access to bts FTTH/N (and they do want access...) then? it works both ways you know.

BT do not have an argument for not offering their fibre as wholesale as it's still run from their copper infrastructure, only the last mile or so will be fibre which means they are still using the same infrastructure financed by the public.

Actually, they have offered fibre in the past, just at high prices which no ISP was interested in (VM use some of bts network btw
)
