  @WInsufficientia @PaulBongiorno Telstra may be a private corp, but Albanese’s Labor government literally contracts Telstra to run Triple Zero — the federal emergency call service. That’s why ACMA and the Triple Zero Custodian are investigating right now, and why Labor can hit them with up to $30 million in fines. Your history lesson is sloppy: partial sales started under Hawke/Keating Labor, final tranches under Howard. But that was 20 years ago. Albanese has been “fixing the LNP/PHON mess” since 2022 — and the result under his watch is a software bug that wiped out 600+ Triple Zero calls, stopped trains, triggered hundreds of welfare checks, and may have killed someone. Blaming 1997–2006 ghosts while your government fails to enforce basic oversight on critical infrastructure today is pure deflection. Stop whitewashing another Labor failure, puppet.

  @strangerous10 @peterke60628957 @BConn39 Given Labor have had 3 terms in power, currently in their 4th, since Telstra was privatised and did nothing to change it, how is this an LNP problem?

  @SkyNewsAust When Telstra failed to deliver reliable service, Jason Clare MP @JasonClareMP, the Albanese Labor Government's Minister for Education, said: "People could have died." But when @AlboMP broke his campaign promise, Jim Chalmers, the Albanese Labor Government's Treasurer, said: "People will get through it." ******* shameless.

  @Democracy_Duck @ABCmediawatch Are you suggesting giving the network back to public ownership? To an organisation like NBN where rejects from Telstra & Optus go to work? (Including Telstra's so-called risk management 'experts' BTW) With ACMA keeping an eye on things?

  @Telstra People died but "sorry we let you down" is your response?

  @SkyNewsAust Is Telstra in a world of trouble? Critical vulnerabilities? Sub-standard 5G with weak coverage in metro areas? Copper wires restricting delivery & speed? Satellite alternatives more reliable & often faster? Slow capacity restricting business compared to competing countries?

  @andrewrdn463 Put a woman in charge of a company like Telstra and Optus and you can be sure they will **** it up.
