BT has been told it must be partially broken up - because it's not doing enough to meet competition rules.
Ofcom, the telecoms regulator, has ordered BT to split from its subsidiary Openreach. Openreach is the part of the business which runs the physical cables and phone lines which most broadband and phone companies use to connect with with customers. It has been the source of a great deal of criticism of BT, with rival telecoms companies accusing it of underinvesting and prioritising BT customers at their expense. Ofcom has suggested Openreach is split off from its parent, with a separate board and control of its own branding and budget. Simon spoke to David Millett, of independent telecoms brokerage Equinox.

One of the oddities of the last 30 years is the The City - London's wealthy, successful and global financial centre - has gone from something known largely only to the those who worked in it, to where it is today, known by us all and followed by us all.

A new book - 'Crash, Bang, Wallop - The Inside Story of London's Big Bang and a Financial Revolution That Changed the World' by journalist Ian Martin - sets out to tell the story .
