40GB of data that costs the same as a house

How much would it cost to download the same amount of data as you get bundled with your home broadband on a mobile roaming tariff? About the same price as a three-bedroom house in Surrey.

It's ridiculous!  How can it cost so much more for mobile data?

This is the problem when you go abroad.  It's unaffordable.
