Er - didn't the cable companies lay the cables in the first place? The cables belong to Virgin Media now quite legitimately.
Is there any law in place preventing others from laying cables?

That's right, and it should be noted that the Murdochs have already offered to have an independent editorial board to ensure the impartiality required.
As I said, this is just a personal grudge that some people have against the Murdoch family.
Love 'em or hate 'em, they have a perfectly legitimate right to run their businesses and people really need to get over their attitude towards them.
