Easy: their infrastructure is newer. We too could have 100Mb/s
connectivity to the door: all we'd have to do is pay for digging up
every road in England and laying fibre to the door, ripping out the old
copper cabling afterwards.

Now who do you imagine is going to pay for that?

Right, BT.

Nobody. Laying cable is *expensive*.
