Today in Parliament, James met with Joe Garner, the CEO of Openreach, and representatives from BT to discuss broadband and the progress of the Connecting Devon and Somerset programme.
For most businesses - and for many residential users too - broadband speeds and poor mobile signals are a constant frustration. Whilst competitors elsewhere in the country can upload documents, live stream or operate through large online databases, we spend hours each week staring at a screen telling us to wait or that service has dipped out altogether. In a global economy where every second counts, Somerset is being held back.
