What Coventry Really Needs

Ever since world war 2 the politicians in Coventry have been making the wrong decisions so the city and everyone in it are poorer and with a lower life quality. Other cities, even many in Britain, have shown how to do things better. We have persistent decline instead.

And now there is another fantastic opportunity to give Coventry a massive boost. And it doesn't even look like the politicians know or care about it.
The opportunity is to bring the next generation of Broadband here. 100 Mbits/second. This would lead to a massive upsurge in all sorts of modern businesses, but then this is obviously something the politicians know nothing about.

Let us look at this news story from the BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7841861.stm

In South Yorkshire an ambitious project aims to see Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC) technology reach 550,000 homes over the next three years.
The project involves local councils, Regional Development Agencies and funding from the European Commission and the first houses should have their connections by the second half of 2009.

So if the South Yorkshire politicians are clever enough to put this together then why can't ours?
