Re: 30 more areas selected for cabling by VM

Westminster is interesting because its home to the politicians, wealthy and the powerful so lots of potential income for VM there. But it also has some of the worst slums in the country too.

Central London is very much going through a transition at the moment. It's always been home to the uber rich while having extreme poverty too. Gradually those in social housing are "getting moved on" and it will just become a place for the elite only. Perhaps this is why VM are getting involved now.

Plus, didn't BT used to own the ducting in and around Westminster which is why there never was a cable service there? How this been resolved, ie who owns the ducts?

The article says that VM are expanding into areas such as Croydon and Hammersmith, but I thought they were already there, so I'm assuming its just infilling areas that have been missed??
