Living in the countryside can mean your political voice is often not heard; business and governments have often neglected the rural area in favour of focusing on densely populated urban areas. However in the pre-election promises, rural broadband was a priority and we are starting to see pledges turn into actions towards achieving this. The importance of a successful broadband network should not be underestimated, it allows people who live remotely an opportunity to use dating services such as Kissinggates.com. Our focus is bringing together single farmers into a portal and subsequently a large database of women follow who are looking for farmer wants a wife.

Many rural areas have little or no broadband access which is particularly problematic for businesses who rely on modern technology such as broadband in order to develop their business, this is very relevant to farmers who now have to submit many documents online to manage stock movements, claim subsidies etc. A recent report identified rural parts of the country should receive priority when it comes to the roll out of super fast broadband, which will come as excellent news for many single farmers. 

This is something we have long campaigned for and rural broadband has and will continue to be a major issue in the countryside, for business to thrive in these areas there needs to be a real commitment to improve our core UK infrastructure, which will in turn increase business activity in the countryside. It will also help to keep the under 30 generation which rely on broadband for communication in the countryside.
