Campaigners deliver 115,000-strong petition to Keir Starmer in last-ditch bid to stop rollout of digital landlines over concerns for vulnerable people

Campaigners have delivered a massive 115,000-signature petition to Keir Starmer, urging him to halt the rollout of digital landlines due to concerns that vulnerable people may be left behind. Dennis Reed, CEO of Silver Voices, is making the final push to pressure the government, highlighting fears that older and less tech-savvy individuals could face difficulties without traditional phone lines. This move underscores broader worries about digital inclusivity and the potential social divide that could arise from rapid technological shifts.
