Rural Broadband and Mobile Coverage

That is true. Good internet connections increase the ability to work from home, thus reducing travel requirements and carbon emissions. Access to public services is increasingly online, which also disadvantages rural residents. When I send out my electronic MP's e-mail shot, I have to upload low-resolution pictures because I know that it will take local people a long time to download a high-resolution picture. I do not want the people of High Peak to wait for a long time to see a full picture of me.
