I understood BT were trying to get out of opening their "new" parts of the network, as they claimed it was nothing to do with the original assets of the public sector.

I did and still do, think its very unfair to be forced into allowing other providers use your network. This puts BT at a disadvantage, BT may be a large company like many that people hate, but there is nothing fair about a government forcing this issue.

If you buy a company, the government should not come along later and expect you to give things away to other companies that you have paid for after the purchase.
