5.5 million Broadband Lines? Shocking! If I were the Communications minister for a country with a broadband penetration rate as low as Ireland's, I'd resign...

(That was sarcasm, btw :))

"We don't have to cross continents to see how best to boost Europe's broadband. The answer is right in front of us. Countries that are performing relatively well, such as Denmark and the UK, have taken action to ensure there is choice and competition, while broadband access in laggard countries such as Greece and Ireland is still to a large extent dominated by the former state-owned incumbents," he added.
