Barnaby: Aussies promised broadband "Maserati"

Barnaby: Aussies promised broadband "Maserati" Aug 16, 2010 7:01 PM

Nationals Senator Barnaby Joyce has compared the Government's National Broadband Network project with promising 93 percent of Australians a Maserati but delivering them not even a bridled donkey.

Joyce also said the NBN plan "could have been authored by a poor pretender to Hans Christian Anderson."

He continued the Coalition line of attack on the NBN, claiming it would cost "every man, woman and child" $2,000 for a connection before "operational costs".

He said the promise to build the NBN was "like the Labor Party telling us that they will develop, build, and deliver a Maserati to 93 percent of Australians next year when so far they haven?t been able to get a bridle on a donkey."

Joyce touted the Coalition's "affordable" and "prudent" broadband network that consisted of a patchwork of wired, wireless and satellite services.

Batshit Barnaby? Even the Monk found him an embarrassment, hardly a credible voice on technical matters.

Thanks, I needed that laugh. Now for another, ABC, iview(if they have it) Landline and Warren Truss(CP ldr) explaining why Barnaby is good for the party.

Don't knock it. there must be millions of women in this country who just love patchwork and similar stuff and we all know from agriculture that monoculture is highly vulnerable {;-).
