Thanks Andy - I think we’ve established my mistake now! The official word is: Northern Ireland is not in Britain, but the British Isles and the UK. Britain is just the main bit.
Scotland - too early to tell what it might affect. We will need our own regulatory body (like Ofcom) and no doubt have to come to some arrangement to ‘share’ Openreach as a regulated incumbent. God knows what the ramifications are - I’m not looking forward to having to deal with it. Hopefully we won’t have to.
