The fact we&#8217;ve already passed the 80% mark earlier this year (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2024\/01\/government-confirms-gigabit-broadband-covers-80-of-uk.html\">here<\/a>) suggests there&#8217;s a good chance of achieving this, albeit more due to the work of commercial operators than public investment.<\/p>\n<p>The second target is more difficult to gauge because it reflects mobile coverage and the recently introduced ambition to \u201c<em>blanket the country with the fastest, most reliable wireless coverage available<\/em>\u201d \u2013 with the plan being for \u201c<em>all populated areas to be covered by \u2018standalone\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a>-plus) by 2030<\/em>\u201c (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2023\/04\/uk-set-ambition-to-deliver-standalone-5g-to-all-populated-areas-by-2030.html\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The lack of a solidly defined % figure here for Standalone 5G makes life difficult, but it&#8217;s probably reasonable to equate this to 99% population coverage (this is a fair bit weaker than using a measure of geographic coverage). In addition, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a> currently only tracks regular 5G coverage and not coverage for the superior end-to-end 5G Standalone networks.<\/p>\n<p>However, according to the latest &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cluttons.com\/property-market-research\/research-articles\/digital-capability-capacity-and-the-infrastructure-to-support-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Connecting today for tomorrow<\/em><\/a>&#8216; from Cluttons, only 1 in 5 MPs said they were confident the targets could be achieved for 5G, and only 1 in 4 said it would happen for gigabit-capable broadband. A third (33%) were not confident that the broadband target could be reached by 2030 and 28% said they were not confident that the 5G threshold would be met.<\/p>\n<p>The survey results were also affected by a very low percentage of Labour MPs saying the Government will meet its targets (Labour: Broadband 0%, 5G 3%), yet at the same time only a third of Conservative (Government) MPs are confident that the 5G targets will be met, and less than half (44%) are confident that the gigabit-capable broadband targets will be reached.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"padding: 0px; width: 100%; border-radius: 4px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2024-uk-internet-statistics\/Cluttons-UK-MPs-Survey-of-Broadband-and-Mobile-Targets.webp\" alt=\"Cluttons-UK-MPs-Survey-of-Broadband-and-Mobile-Targets\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>There is clearly a problem when MPs are not convinced that the UK will meet its own targets for augmenting digital connectivity.
