Federal Election

[bulldogproud2]

I had a play with the Vote-A-Matic feature, http://www.news.com.au/features/federal-election which asks a series of 15-16 questions and tells you which party most strongly agrees with your answers mine came up with the GREENS!!?? WTF

Welcome aboard Mick.

"One of us.One of us.One of us."

I also got the Greens (42%), narrowly from Labor (38%). The Coalition only scored 9%.
I think this works!!

It will come as a total shock that I scored ALP 48, Greens 41, Coalition 9.

Hello Aung San Suu Kyi

[Squawk]

The questions did always give me the options I wanted to see, but I ended up with 35% ALP, 33% Coalition, 20% Greens and 10% Donkey! Not sure about about the other 2%?

35% Donkey - Clearly I must be a single white middle-class male in his mid-20's!!!

[Psyber]

Vote-A-Matic - Would anyone here believe it?
I scored:
Donkey 35%
Labor 35%
Coalition 16%
Greens 12%
[missing 2% ??]
I intend to vote for the Coalition because after Whitlam, Keating, and Rudd, I really don't trust the ALP.
I sympathise with some of their ideas but I don't believe that will deliver, or deliver in a fair and equitable form.
Possibly, my Donkey vote is high because I'm really in the middle, but my Donkey preferences go to the Coalition in the end.

A good video of Abbott doing the time warp.

I see that the National Broadband Network will now deliver at speeds of up to 1GB(?).

The initial rollout in Tassie has come in under budget.

If Abbott wins, we'll rejoice in 12Mbs(?).

I'd rejoice in 12Mbps - I'm 4.6Km from my local exchange and 6.4Mbps is the best I achieve on my "ADSL2+" plan. [But its cheaper than the equivalent ADSL1 deal.]
While faster may be nice I really don't need it. 1.5Mbps was all I could get when I lived in the Dandenong Ranges.

[redandblack]

The IT industry has absolutely slammed the Lib broadband plan.

I just breathe a sigh of relief that there's a chance the National Broadband Network isn't designed around Psyber's needs

Only joking, mate

[Leaping Lindner]

EXCLUSIVE!!! The coalition's broadband plan revealed......

[redandblack]

LL, I see they've upgraded their policy, then
