The mirror is either temporarily broken or down for good, Just use
another one, there's nothing else you can do.
I confirm it has been unreliable recently. Sometimes works fine.
Unfortunately other UK mirrors are iffy too.
ftp.uk.debian.org is working fine for me at the moment.
Allied to the problem so I will speak up: -
Package netselect is broken for a large class of users, 6+ year old
fatal bug misclassified as wishlist
I guess someone thought that pass through firewall was a major code
change, hence wishlist, is apparently not that at all.
netselect-apt incorrectly complains about the firewall
netselect fails silently.
The above fails here as described.
Here is one page with the fix, not sure if there are other places
