We cannot ignore the developments in Korea, Japan and many other countries, just as we couldn't dismiss those nations' progress in other industries eg automotive, textiles, manufacturing etc.
The digital divide within the UK is growing as urban areas get 24Mbps and there are still many in rural areas who are lucky to get 1/2Mbps, but more importantly perhaps the digital divide between Britain and an ever-growing number of countries is steadily becoming a chasm.

This is not about apportioning blame, although there are without doubt some who should be shouldering some of it. It is about seeking the right way forward for UK Plc, before it is too late to catch up in a reasonable timeframe.

"Are we constructing a future for our children in which they can compete? Are we building the future? Will UK Plc be in the running in 2012? Are we training our businesses, citizens, and civil servants to win the broadband race? Are we going for gold?"
