VM is, at long last, a successful company with healthy revenues, debt under control, increasing subscriber base, increasing RGUs, innovative products, fantastic brand etc, etc, etc,

Which is the exact reason they have been bought by Liberty.

If you think
Liberty are now going to come along, throw all that in the toilet and make wholesale changes that may threaten any if that? I don't think so.

Any changes will be behind the scenes, initially, no doubt other changes will come but none that would dramatically change what VM do now or their current medium term plan.

They just spent 16 billion dollars buying VM, they will want a return on that.
