FREE BROADBAND FOR ALL BY 2030 

An Over 50s party government will deliver free
full-fibre broadband to all by 2030. 

The plan will boost jobs, tackle regional inequality and improve quality of life as part of a mission to connect
the country.

Establishing British Broadband, with two arms: 
  • British Digital Infrastructure (BDI) and 
  • the British Broadband Service (BBS). 

NATIONALISE BT 
Bringing the broadband-relevant parts of BT into public ownership, with a jobs guarantee for all workers in existing broadband infrastructure and retail broadband work.

BRITISH DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE 
BDI will roll out the remaining 90–92% of the full-fibre network, and acquire necessary access rights to existing assets. 


BRITISH BROADBAND SERVICE 
BBS will coordinate the delivery of free broadband in tranches as the full-fibre network is rolled out, beginning with the communities worst served by existing broadband networks. 


HOW FUNDED?
Taxation of multinationals, including tech giants, will pay for the operating costs of the public full-fibre network. 

DIGITAL RIGHTS 
Public will have a Charter of Digital Rights, as consumers. 

 FUND LIBRARIES 

  • Bring back all closed libraries, and grant free access to super fast broadband to those signed up to the library. Saves on your energy bills. 


HELP TELEWORKING 

  • Make home working the norm, to cut down emissions from commuter car and diesel train emissions. 

  • Bring ultra fast broadband to every corner of the land, utilising the National Infrastructure Commission. 

  • Firms doing home working should pay for energy bills connected to specific works computer with proper health and safety desk and chair and lighting in a specific room. 

  • Expand provision of free public wi-fi in city centres and on public transport. 

  • Improve 4G coverage. 

  • Research to end 5G cutting down mature woodland to get coverage. 

  • No tree will be felled to gain 5G access. 


SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR 

  • Deal with addiction to mobile phones, of dangerous behaviour of walking along without looking about you, eyes glued down on your mobile phone, constantly swiping the screen (so endangering repetitive strain syndrome to hands, losing the use of fingers) and ageing eyes faster by viewing back glare of screens. 


  • Perhaps work together with television soaps watched by young people and with the pop music industry.  


  
CARRINGTON EVENT 

  • In 1859, the British astronomer Richard Carrington witnessed the megaflare of biggest solar storm of solar winds emitted from the sun that reaches earth causing geomagnetic disturbances. 

  • If such a megaflare happened today, the world’s high-tech infrastructure would grind to a halt. 

  • Global positioning systems (GPS) would be effected in cell phones, airplanes and motor vehicles. 

  • Satellite communications would be at risk. For example, this would effect getting petrol from the petrol pump, as your credit card payment is a satellite transaction. 
  • So petrol stations need to be able to also keep cash payment. 

  • The electrical grid could suffer blow out of giant transformers, by power surges caused by solar particles. These could take some time to replace. 

  • To build back better power grid (after being nationalised) so is less vulnerable to solar disruptions. 

  • Better space weather forecasting of these solar events, as it takes about 20 hours for damaging emissions of big solar storms to reach earth, gives times for UK nationalised power company to take the transformers offline before the storm strikes, producing local blackouts, but these storms tend to pass after a couple of hours.

NOT GET RID OF LANDLINE PHONES 

  • Forbid Ofcom / Openreach / Telecoms industry from ending landline phones, and replacing with having internet to make a phone call using fibre broadband network. In power outages, your internet would not be working and so you could not call emergency services with your landline. Your mobile needs recharging, so that could be out of action, in a blackout as well.
