No argument from me, h. The Libs have been quite appalling under Turncoat. It's dismal and dismaying.

At least with Abbott at the helm there was some policy, fight and direction.

S- the MM was PM when the NBN was rooted, prolly because the madman didn't want Truffles to have a win. The MM has no use for high speed broadband. He is on the fast super prayer highway to god.

Phurt!! The NBN was rooted when the Pinkos scribbled the plan on the back of an envelope in 2009 and costed it at $4 Bill. By the time the dreaded Pinks were expelled in 2013, the cost had grown beyond $40B. Even with all the Lib cost cutting, it's now expected to cost at least $90 Billion. $90-ferkin-Billion, FFS!!!

MrK is right in the fact that should have been targeted at towns and cities with a minimum population of say 30,000, and NOT included ALL households. THIS is the cutting that the Libs should have done.

This is just another example of Labor having no idea how to run a country or an economy. They think money grows on trees.

Minding one of the shops so I put myself on NT time. See those of us in the real world can mentally adjust and don't need a clock to fight mother nature.

My higher training was technical. I understood it, but was more commenting on the use of such gibber.

I go over every year. However the last time I did the English Ashes series (Aug 2015), we got rolled for 60 at Trent Bridge, when we needed a win to square the series. Ashes gawn!!!

Crikey, what a slow news day.

Barely any cricket, no world controversies, no major disasters, no celebrity deaths. Looks like it's up to the High Court's MP citizenship decision to stir up some traffic.

And our old mate Q is off to Blighty today. His post count in recent weeks has been laudable. We even lose that for a few days, maybe weeks.

Joyce, Ludlam, Nash, Waters and Roberts gone.

Canavan and Xenophon stay.

By-election for Joyce's seat on 2 December. Roberts has said he will stand for the seat of Ipswich in the Qld state election (shame RD wasn't here to hear that).
