        @mikeneilson3 @MarrShow even more so if grants could be given to remote communities to build their own fibre network.

        it's not an exclusively rural issue, especially where there are a lot of Exchange Only Lines

        I suspect a lot of the problems with broadband go back to initial privatisation requirements.

        as a constituent I'd settle for half decent broadband via a phone line, not slow and intermittent access via a radio receiver.

        @AngusMacNeilSNP We don't even have dial up Internet in Bernera. We have to use extortionate Satellite Internet £50, 25GB mth.
