Turnbull must have been sooooooo Embarrassment mate.

Abbot can even make Turnbull look clumsy and inarticulate.

Blimey the reason we're being bent over and ...you know the rest....for an NBN, is because Little Johnny sold the copper network.  Foresight eh?  Probably thought it would be redundant in 10 years.  WRONG. 

Seems to me (and I'm not a techie type), that It's not the Fibre (or whatever it's called) we're paying so much for, it's digging a completely NEW network because we don't own the tunnels the OLD NETWORK is housed in.  Dumb, Dumber or Dumbest?  you decide. 

If the Telstra Network infrastructure was still ours, it would be only a matter of upgrading the wiring.  How many Political decisions have led to the same BS outcome? 

sorry, just had to vent that.
