The Wonderful NBN...

I was listening to the radio this morning while I was doing the kid run and I heard that the Chairman of the NBN released some sort of report yesterday.

It was apparently some sort of report into what's been rolled out thus far and the uptake figures.

Get this...

1. They won't release how much the NBN has cost the country so far,
2. There are a total of 18...YES!  18 households who have subscribed to the NBN directly (through an outfit called Exitel - my spelling may be incorrect on this), and a total of 216 household subscribers through all 4 internet service providers,
3. and....now this is the kicker...The GG, the wonderful Quentin Bryce has signed some sort of documentation that exempts the NBN from scrutiny by the Public Works Authority!!

So, this mob is allowed to spend $43billion of our hard earned and no one is allowed to question where our dollar is going, and what returns are being achieved?


This country really is heading up the creek without a paddle!
