Leased. VM's only fibre outside the UK is the Sirius ring between Great Britain and Ireland.

Far easier than, for example, moving the Telewest AS behind the ntl one and, after that, merging them which was also 'just done'.
This is nothing more than editing an AS macro and some route maps. Looks as though it went slightly wrong, too, given Aorta was taking precedence over VM's own LINX peering for a little while. I guess this might perhaps be due to the pre-existing traffic engineering governing LINX and the TBB route on VM's edge.

Public peering is purely about cost, not performance.
