This shows how badly the ALP is marketing the project. The taxpayers
are *not* paying for this infrastructure. I believe Abbott said the same
thing last night, and he also mentioned the BS figure of $90Bn (he said
it will cost $60Bn less).

Turnbull has managed to infiltrate his untruths into the minds of the
voters, and Main Stream Media never question it. Yet when ALP say
it will cost up to $5000 to connect fiber under LNP (a figure that will
only be achievable if the connections costs are subsidised, as it is with
BT in the UK), MSM get all nasty because under ALP it will be free.
Do they mention that BT also charge an annual fee for having fibre?
No.

LNP's fraudband has so many negative issues that its not funny. Its a
pity ALP can't demonstrate this in laymans terms to the voters.
