    Anybody who thinks the Libs nuclear plan will be operational within 10 years and anywhere near its ridiculous pricetag needs to first explain the NBN shitshow which was going to be ‘cheaper and sooner’

    Never forget that Turnbull bending over for Murdoch and Telstra was primarily responsible for this.

      I can almost see Labor winning by running a strong campaign around this point. Maybe I’m dreamin.
