Pity the poor rural business
"We risk seeing the emergence of a two-speed online economy resulting from poor rural broadband infrastructure."
Given that there are 3x as many urban SMEs as rural, and these urban businesses employ 7x as many people and generate over 10x the turnover, any logical analysis would conclude that the focus should be on the quarter to a third of urban SME's with broadband problems, rather than the rural tiddlers who (presumably) hope for the rest of society to pay for urban utilities to be expanded to the countryside?
