The telecoms giant plans to shed up to 40% of its workforce by the end of the decade to cut costs.

Mr Jansen said AI would make services faster, better and more seamless, adding that the changes would not mean customers will "feel like they are dealing with robots".

      BT owns like 90% of telecoms cables in the country. They are forced to sublet a percentage of their lines to other companies. It's not so much a regional monopoly as it is a national monopoly.

      Mainly because it used to be publicly owned. Thanks Thatcher.
