All great points. I had a call from the office of my local member today asking what issues are driving my vote. 1 - I hate the ALP prisons for refugees program. 2 - NBN - the ALP needs to learn about this technology and counter Turnbull's lies. What this article lacks is mention of the 'wifi alternative' furphy. As I said to the caller, physics doesn't lie.
