What does faster broadband mean?

Isn't it a bit misleading when Tony Abbott says the coalition will deliver faster broadband than Labor?

Shouldn't he be pulled up on it?

Didn't he say they would deliver broadband faster than Labor, not faster broadband

they said 20000, 30000, and 60000 cabinets are required but as they need to be located 2 ks apart there has go to be more than all those guesses.

Well I just heard him say it quite clearly on sky news, the dummies will probably believe him too.

He probably did say it. He said 20,000, 30,000 and 60,000 cabinets would be used too but the Telco people say way more as they need to be max 2 ks apart to get anywhere near the speeds quoted. And still they ignore the upload questions.

Well they are going mad on twitter, every time he says they will deliver faster broadband he is lying, the journalists need to do their job and call him on it.

Come on you lot, stop having fun, it won't be long before someone posts how vile and depicable you all are for playing the man, not the message. They'll probably throw in a few other accusations as well.

Our usual coterie of Cutters & Pasters (good name for a band ... has a bit of "Hunters & Collectors" about it ...) have been strangely absent on the whole NBN thing ... is this because their contribution to CS hasn't been written by bolt or akerman yet ?

No need to watch the whole thing, what he actually says at the beginning is that under a coalition we will have a MUCH MUCH FASTER broadband.

Just like a coalition will ALWAYS have lower interest rates.

Lies and (more) damn lies.
