It’s not NBN it’s a joke. Service is slow and poor. This is an embarrassing situation for a so called “wealthy” country. Poland has faster and better internet services then Australia and so does Uzbekistan. But hey, let the profits flow from Aus and let us line the pockets of 1%

deniseshrivell Unfortunately we have an NBN satellite account. Doubt you could call that being connected. Less than 40 mins from major city it's the only option. They never include satellite in data or surveys. All 3rd world countries I've visited have heaps better service.

Lol. I’m still 2 years away in metro Melbourne! What a joke. The copper wire will be rusted by the time I get connected.

Not to mention poor to destructive connection. NO trades Person trained by tafe or a real builder would destroy Property. attaching a communication plastic box. yet they have. Pink batts now plastic boxes

deniseshrivell Any refunds should be paid out the personal pockets of the unethical and corrupt LNP MP’s who destroyed the NBN. auspol LNP=LiesNotPolicy

JennieDuke Only one place to point the finger of shame and blame... LIBERALS Turmbull policy of NBN pairing fast fiber optic cables with failing old copper wires. There needs to be a corruption envestigation. Turnbul the Tellecommunications mp then PM knew it would fail MSMWatchdog2013 JennieDuke The telcos deliberately slow down the speed using a noise which is a unnecessary signal that would be similar to the water board sending air through water pipes to slow down the delivery of your water supply.

This falls into the “things that make you go hmmmm” category Bus driver gets 5 years no fatalities. Damn Uber get off. Why? Is this Uber/google lawyers, pressure and money.

Woman arrested in Paris after city's deadliest apartment fire in a decade | Sky News AustraliaA woman has been arrested in Paris after 10 people were killed in an apartment fire. \n\nThe eight-storey apartment block was located in one of the city's high-end districts and is one of the deadliest blazes in the French capital for over a decade.\n\nPolice are treating the blaze as a possible 'criminal act'.\n\nAt least 30 other people have been injured with fears the death toll will rise.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n This is what happens when government does not do its job. Building regulations and the enforcement of those regulations is government responsability, like the issue of cladding on building and its fire rating.. the lack of action by our government is horrific.

One Nation’s James Ashby ‘controls’ Hanson: Burston | Sky News AustraliaSenator Brian Burston has told Sky News that One Nation’s James Ashby ‘controls everything behind the scenes’ including Pauline Hanson. \n\nMr Burston quit One Nation in June after disagreements with the party leader, before joining Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party.\n\nMr Burston says he and Ms Hanson were close friends, but he left One Nation with some enemies.\n I thought Richo really should have asked the hard questions of Brian Burton about how The Clive Palmer United Party is administered, after giving Burston free rein to severely criticise Pauline Hanson on how she runs her Party.

'Tax the rich': one man's hard truth comments at Davos go viralWant to solve global inequality and resolve populist backlash? Skip the philanthropy and tax the rich more, says one historian whose comments have gone viral. Define what is rich....do they already pay tax. Sooooooo tax everyone who works!, tax the west, tax the Middle East!, tax a business more that is better than its rivals!........? Tax all who have more then others. Who's going to define rich? The gross inequity of wealth distribution needs to be corrected. Those who decry this mans message of 'tax the rich' might read up on the alternatives used at similar tipping points in history. They may need to worry about their necks more than their wallets.

'Tax the rich': one man's hard truth comments at Davos go viralWant to solve global inequality and resolve populist backlash? Skip the philanthropy and tax the rich more, says one historian whose comments have gone viral. Wealth or poverty is one issue BUT Older voters are the baby boomers, the largest powerful voting group in 2019, so all parties tread carefully , you dont want to step on their super mines. I agree. we just need rich people and big business to pay their share. the infrastructure and labour of our country allows them to make the money. They should pay up or come the revolution we shall eat them! Shouldn't everyone pay the same tax rate? Whether rich or poor. If your income per annum is over 20k then everyone gets taxed at same percentage. Why is it different for different earners?
