Highlighting the need for better broadband connectivity across Powys

By Paul Walter | Sat 6th July 2019 - 2:25 pm

If you haven’t already been to Brecon and Radnorshire to help, please do so as soon as you can. Details are the foot of this post.

Jane Dodds and team have been out in the sun in Presteigne. It’s very good to see some distinguished members of the House of Lords in Jane’s coterie:

Getting a great response on the doorstep in #Presteigne this afternoon.

We have real issues with broadband connectivity right across #Powys, it’s time for us to elect a hard working MP who’ll fight to fix this!https://t.co/6FsTenl3mX pic.twitter.com/3GNMWY2Qmv

Nice to see Jane in today’s Observer, with fairly good coverage from a paper which tends to minimise coverage of us in favour of Labour.

I can assure everyone that they will get a friendly reception if they turn up to help. Lovely countryside as well. The Llandrindod Wells office is only a few minutes walk from the station.

Access for mobile ‘phones and internet can be done via satellites, as in Africa. The commercial interests of the suppliers are strongly against sharing ground based facilities.

A link would be useful, did you mean this? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/jul/07/brecon-byelection-battle–remain-alliance-quiet-revolution
It is true, Labour hardly gets a mention.

Glad to give the actual location of the article – pages 8 and 9. Not all news is online. There is a wonderful news medium called a newspaper!

Labour is 100/1 against at the bookies in this part of Wales

My work allows me no time to travel to Brecon & Radnorshire to help Jane Dodd’s campaign in person, so when the by-election date was confirmed a few weeks ago I made a fairly modest donation. Nevertheless, I was delighted and impressed today when Jane herself took the trouble to ring and to thank me. So I’ll send some more!
