#auselections2025 — Public Fediverse posts

There is no doubt that #Labor ‘s primary vote is in decline. There is also no doubt that Labor’s flirtation with #neoliberalism (an economic theory debunked by the #GFC and a product of the Boston University School of economics developed for a substantial fee) has taken its political ‘plank’ too far to the right for its socially progressive base. It has been so for a number of years. The Covid ‘emergency’ was an inflection point where the Australian economy took a hit from which it is still vacillating.

The electorate is now fully awake to the need for action on #climate , action on affordable #housing and is divided along #conservative and #progressive political lines. What #AusElections2025 will deliver for a govt is anyone’s guess at this stage and I submit that political #polling will largely be uninformative. What is clear is the existence of a political ‘vacuum’ needed to be filled.

I have 100MB FTTN, I can drive 10 minutes, and the only option is Fixed Wireless or Satellite (or Enterprise fibre, which NBN refuses to connect to the standard network after the 3 year contract, preferring to leave it dead, but installed).

Wired *fibre* internet should be available everywhere wired electricity is available. You have the poles already there, just use them. Do the job properly and nation-build, you cowards. #NBN #AusPol #AusElections2025
