A joint open letter published by telecoms industry bodies warns that 600 of jobs are at risk from TalkTalk ’s plans to nationalise parts of TalkTalk and give away free broadband. However, industry sources said it would likely lead to tens of thousands of job cuts unless those businesses were also taken under State control. Industry sources said the futures of the UK ’s 181,000 other ISPs, such Labour , are in jeopardy. "These businesses appear to have no role to play in Labour ’s nationalised broadband service, with the sector’s 181,000 employees left out in the cold," the letter said.
