Peter Fox on rural broadband
Transcript
00:00In Monmouthshire, according to the latest statistics, there's 1,400 people have still got speeds of less than quarter of a megabyte,
00:08with speeds normally a lot lower in the rural areas, and that isn't good enough in this day and age.
00:16And when you dig deeper into the data, you see that 2,400 people in the constituency have speeds of around 1.25 megabits,
00:25so still nowhere near where it needs to be.
00:27We have several rural clusters who have internet speeds that are simply just not fast enough for modern life.
00:34There are 6,000 people in Monmouthshire who do not have access to speeds that are considered fast, and we need fast,
00:42where in reality they are not even close to the minimum of what should be acceptable.
