  It’s funny how Telstra has never really rebranded despite their logo, looking like it was made using Microsoft paint.

  @Totally4yeah @Tank9999 I have bottle gas for cooking & a wood fire stove (about 80yrs old) for cooking and heating in winter and a wood heater, evap cooling and use town water. Even the batteries are secondhand, most from Telstra swap-outs. Have had 1 battery fail in 25 years.

  @FunkleberryTwit No, Howard's "non-core promises" were philosophically driven, not a response to a worsening situation. They included vows to "never ever" introduce a GST, not cut Medicare services, not to privatise Telstra, and that workers' take-home pay would not be affected, then WorkChoices

  @bek_lenin @MmeMaigret1 @ashman_the Keating/Hawke began the sell off. Commonwealth Bank, Telstra etc. Costello/Howard continued with it. Just as bad as each other. Rudd with his ‘stimulus cheques’ got us into debt which has spiralled to today’s numbers.

  @chopwisegamji @BobBurn97207272 No infrastructure build is complete lie though, what about West Connex and Bruce highway. Upgrade on Adelaide Hospital, Footscray hospitals and NBN ( never liked it) all done during last 29 years. And don’t forget labour sold of remaining Telstra ownership on 2011!! Come at me

  NEWS: Telstra and TPG push Australian government for competitive spectrum auctions despite SpaceX warning Australian mobile carriers Telstra and TPG Telecom have urged the government to go ahead with open, competitive auctions for spectrum licences used for mobile and satellite mobile services, even after SpaceX warned it would withhold Starlink satellite mobile service in Australia if it isn’t given priority access to key wireless spectrum. SpaceX has made it clear that its satellite-to-mobile network (Starlink Direct to Cell) needs guaranteed access to Australia’s wireless airwaves to launch its full services — including voice and data for phones directly from satellites. But Telstra and TPG argue that giving one provider priority access risks limiting competition and could lock in high prices for consumers. A TPG spokesperson said competitive auctions are important because market concentration is a real risk if policy settings favour a single operator. They stressed Australia should encourage multiple satellite providers and business models, not entrench dominance by any one company, whether traditional mobile or satellite-based. Telstra and TPG’s stance comes amid broader debate about how Australia will manage spectrum — a critical resource that carries all mobile voice, text and data traffic. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has been consulting on future spectrum licences and how to allocate them fairly as older licences expire and new services are developed. Telstra itself has been active in satellite-mobile tech, testing and rolling out basic satellite messaging in Australia using SpaceX’s Direct to Cell system, but carriers say full commercial services must not be tied to exclusive spectrum access for one provider.

  @markbouris John Howard a failed PM that lost his own seat. Sold off Telstra to the people that already owned it at a time when we needed to upgrade to optic fibre network. Tried to introduce Workchoices to destroy wage increases. Sold off gas on 30 year contract . Neg gearing and CGT ..
