"Tom Mockridge, the chief executive of Virgin Media, is determined to offer millions more homes cable as demand for faster internet access continues to increase, City sources said.
He has appealed to the board of Liberty Global for further funding for Project Lightning, a £3bn scheme to connect an extra 4 million homes and businesses to the cable network by 2020, increasing coverage from around 50pc to two-thirds of UK premises."
