to be frank, the need for there to be retail competition subsidised by BT is holding things back.

I think removing copper and increasing FTTP rollout should take precedence over if some small time isp wants to sell services to a property.

You might say well sky and talktalk are not small time, they not but they have the means to rollout their own fibre to compete if they want to.

I think ofcom's approach to FTTP has been very shameful.

Also isp's do have the option of selling over openreach FTTP, so the copper is not even required for that anyway. In my opinion ofcom should not be holding things back for the sake of isp's who refuse to adopt FTTP in their product line up's.

Sadly its all but certain some ISP would take Ofcom to court if they allow BT to act with what is obvious common sense

probably yeah, the isps will have a sense of entitlement now, and if you take it away they wont lie down and take it.
