UK mobile operators call for UK competition regulation
UK mobile operators, with the exception of T-Mobile and Orange, have called for the UK authorities to investigate the creation of T-Orange rather than trusting Brussels.

T-Orange?
Is it really going to be called T-Orange? Or, as I'm living in Yorkshire, t'Orange.

T-Orange?
No it's not going to be called T-Orange thats just a daft name.
Instead its the first three from Orange and from T-Mobile its the last four,
Thus creating an ORABILE Network !!!!
when in doubt
Follow the money.
If you wonder why something so bad continues to exist for *so* long.
Follow the money.
That is all.
T-mOrange?
Say it how it looks
or Orange T... Which I'm told tastes horrible.
It'll all just become first Orange, then eventually Wanadoo as the deal is finally closed - because those Frogs will go to almost any lengths to piss us off (PS I love France xx)
Paris, because... Well, France.
