      Digital infrastructure is absolutely crucial. By 2022 we will extend mobile coverage to 95% geographic coverage of the UK (1/2) #GE17Rural

      The most rural parts of Scotland will almost always miss out in 95% situation. Is it a price for living rurally? #GE17Rural

      We need to raise bar to 99%+ population and 95%+ geographic, and implement a Rural First policy for new spectrum licensing #GE17rural

      Satellite challenged by laws of physics. Signal has to go up and down = latency. NearSat being explored, and could be better #GE17Rural

      Solutions are there. It's not the technology that's the problem. It's UK Gov policy, deployment models and areas such as licensing

          If a Mobile Operator won't use their spectrum in a geo location then there should be claw backs for those that will (communities)
