Yes, I do too. I think the very best thing is that millions of people lose their internet connection and thousands of people lose their jobs. I am absolutely certain that Virgin Media failing as a business is the best thing that could happen. I especially think that as the Internet is so trivial an element of modernising the British economy that the Government would be overjoyed to have millions of people disconnected, and as such would not provide guarantees or taxpayer money to keep the business afloat. I'm even more certain that changing the management or partly nationalising the company would solve all the logistic and capacity issues instantaneously. I mean, that kind of intervention had such positive effects with simple things like the railways and the banks that I cannot imagine there being any difficulties whatsoever with such a project. I'm also sure that the fact that Virgin Media are listed on an American stock exchange though they trade in the UK makes two countries eager for it to fail as a business.
I mean, that would be the very best thing, wouldn't it? Better even than Christmas.
