However, conversely, for the rest of the country, although I dislike privatisation in most areas, broadband is one of the services were time has shown that can actually work if the conditions exist for it to be a genuine market. In much of the country, if you move into a new house, you can choose from ~10 providers, some cheap, some expensive, some better, some worse, some streamlined, some part of TV packages...
This isn't like with the trains. I can't rock up to my local station and look at the different tracks, and think "I'll take the PepsiCo train because the Coca-Cola one is expensive, the Virgin one provides a meal which I don't need, the Amazon one is faster but costs more and I don't need to get there so fast..."
It feels kinda unnecessary.
