except we didn't agree the limit to which they'll drop, which will be the current price of broadband

which is double what i'm paying

But we did agree that the costs are lower for fibre, meaning they can drop lower.

That's at current prices, while the transition is occuring

Prices are dropping

And will continue to keep dropping

I can't believe you're going to try argue against economies of scale 🤷

Easily - there's a baseline price it won't go below

And that baseline is lower on fibre

🙂

it won't be

lul, the UK isnt naming any EC members... effectively right now the EU treaty is defunct

and the EU is making a legal case against the UK about it

hey man... boris sent a letter warning them that an extension would be a bad idea

This is becoming stupid

What else are they going to promise to do for free

Give out free tossjobs at every polling place?

The Labour party promising fibre broadband to the people? Where have i heard this before??? <:thunk:462282216467333140>

Its a dumb idea and will lead to terrible service and internet censorship

Even PeP thinks it's a dumb idea

That's how fucking dumb an idea it is

But it will get them lots of votes

Doubt it

Most people who have fibre already have fibre
Businesses who want fibre aren't going to vote communist

Ask anyone over 60yrs old what it was like when the telecoms were run by a socialist Labour government monopoly

I was thinking students

Aka Labour voters

They already get free fibre when they're at uni

Here's a comedy show about nationalised telecoms from the 1950s

Only in halls

I don't think it's as much of a draw for students as you think, with 4g mobile and wifi

It's the fact that it's free that will attract them

They were already voting LAbour though

They are mostly appealing to labour voters

Fair point. But it might make more of them bother to turn out (twice)

Free fibre lmao

You have to wonder what electorate money he will use to bribe the electorate with next

Now this is how you campaign
