Campaigners hand-deliver a petition with more than 115,000 signatures to 10 Downing Street as a bid to halt the rollout of “digital landlines.” The move is described as a last attempt to influence the UK Government, with the petition presented in connection with Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Dennis Reed, CEO of Silver Voices, is leading the delivery. The campaign says the proposed rollout raises concerns about vulnerable people, arguing that the changes could affect those who rely on traditional landline services. Organisers frame the action as pressure on the Government to reconsider the implementation and outcomes of the digital landline programme. The reports describe the petition as large-scale, organised by campaigners calling for intervention, and delivered directly to Downing Street rather than through formal correspondence alone. Based on the accounts provided, the public focus remains on whether the Government proceeds with the rollout and how it would address the needs of vulnerable residents.
