You’re wrong, critics tell Turnbull: Australia voted for NBN

news An analysis of Senate voting patterns put together by supporters of Labor’s all-fibre NBN policy has shown parties supporting the fibre to the premises model received more support in the Federal Election than the Coalition’s alternative, calling into question Malcolm Turnbull’s claim to have a mandate to change the NBN rollout to fibre to the node.

Think about the savings in health alone.

http://www.abc.net.au/technology/articles/2013/09/19/3852140.htm

In the toxic fact-free zone that represents the bulk of National Broadband Network discussion, most people would be shocked to know that the NBN is likely worth building for the healthcare benefits alone - especially for the old and infirm. And the NBN doesn't just offer a healthcare revolution, it's likely to save tax payers billions of dollars every year. Most important of all, however, is the notion that these new-generation 'Telehealthcare' applications are only viable using the current Fibre to the Home broadband policy and not the Coalition's alternative. Could it be that convalescing old ladies, who have never used a computer in their lives, are the pin-up girls for fibre-based broadband?

 Labor’s all-fibre NBN policy has shown parties supporting the fibre to the premises model received more support in the Federal Election 

 

so how come the liberals are in power and Malcolm Turnbull is the Minister for Communications?

And by the way I saw no question on the senate voting ticket asking what my internet preference was.

 

But I guess the propaganda machine has to grind on in the hopes to snare some gullible people. 🙂

I was going to ask about that, Poddster.

 

i'd love to see an analysis of how Australia voted based on a different policy.

"......What legitimacy does quink’s analysis have? It’s really quite impossible to know. Australians typically don’t vote for one party based on a single issue, even one as powerful as the NBN. Statistically, I’d say that experienced pollsters such as the ABC’s Antony Green would pour cold water all over this one. We just can’t simply posit that the NBN was as big an issue in the election as many people seem to think it was, merely because of these Senate voting figures. And I’m sure Turnbull would come back with this kind of line, should he be asked about the issue......"
