@sooozees713 I can honestly say I haven't voted LNP since '94. Labor will fix the NBN but will be crucified for it. Any time they fix a problem this happens.

@MrKRudd Kevin what we have at the moment with slomo is a true disaster, he is driving us down a mountain. The NBN you designed has been turned to crap. It doesn't work like it should. In my area Redcliffe they are constantly have to fix it. I wish we still had you in gov. I really do.

@TroyBramston @LalitaMathias Conroy who was so desperate to get NBN numbers up he did a deal with Telstra so they’d drop their PSTN phones and force all their customers over to NBN phones. He got his numbers up, for phones not internet, and old people ended up with a phone that didn’t work in a blackout.

Avoid crowds, interiors, chatting. Eric Lindsay (@ericlindsay) reported
@ElMuggs I can’t imagine any reason why Services Australia would want to contact me. However sometimes government bodies decide they should help out somehow even without contact. You found a better page to look up than I did. Mind you, NBN died here around 10 a.m.

@BazzaCC Agreed. But I guess @AustralianLabor are looking at a full suite of, pay rates to increase i.e. nursing home staff, funding to restore (i.e. NDIS, Medicare, ABC, CSIRO etc.), LNP problems to fix (enviro, NBN) new investments etc. Picking their battles, within a budget? Tough gig.

@gil_hardwick @AlboMP Is training more nurses a strange concept to grasp? NBN shouldn’t even be an issue in 2022 - your lot wrecked the concept from the beginning. Go further back & Howard sold the entire country’s network of underground comms conduits to ‘balance the books’. Still costing us.

@PaulHaw76924422 @BenWoodSay @SenatorWong You have no idea. 5G is ****, not super fast, is slowed by congestion and distance. Starlink is owned by Musk and is even slower. And US has 1 Gbps fibre for cheaper than NBN crap in Aus. The US is also bigger than Aus. LNP ****** it up, Australia has ******** internet

@Telstra Can someone please tell me why i’m being given the run around when all i want is my internet to be fixed, have had constant dropouts since 30/03/22, and keep getting told “it’s NBN’s issue, it’s Telstra’s issue” oh and the blatant lying from the faults staff, yeah…..

@pumbaalicious1 That seems like an issue on NBN's end or it could be a faulty modem.

Paul Hawkins (@PaulHaw76924422) reported
@ytc8438 @BenWoodSay @SenatorWong Other nations your compare against have larger populations and are not spread out like Australia… so you support wasting money on nbn to a house 100 km near their newest neighbour …you cannot compare australia against other nations as it is idiotic

Angie W M (@AngelaWallisM1) reported
@NBN_Australia @bachovski At first it wouldn't connect at all just north of Woolgoolga, now it's agonisingly slow. The NBN service here is atrocious: always slow. Welcome to technology in Australia.

David Ward (@Farmer_Dave999) reported
@farmagro1 Many farmers not only love tech but couldn't get things done as efficiently as they do currently without it Even more would be used if they had access to cheaper & faster internet, rather than the current NBN satellite service provides

@missrobinson It depends what “things” they have in mind. Some might be confused as to what level of government does what. Some might want a juicy spot of barrelled pork. Others have some genuine federal level issue that particularly presses hard there locally (e.g. bad NBN, etc)
