Foes liken NBN to Nth Korea, want it anyway

Foes liken NBN to Nth Korea, want it anyway

Whinging Telstra shareholders followed Malcolm Turnbull's lead, showing no shame in comparing the government-driven separation of Telstra to authoritarian regimes where citizens have few rights and live in perpetual fear of starvation, torture, imprisonment and death. As hypocritical complaints mount over the latest NBN schedule, one wonders whether we could put some perspective back into the NBN debate — or have anti-NBN crusaders jumped the shark for good?

Shareholders onside, NBN's final battle looms

Shareholders onside, NBN's final battle looms

Telstra's shareholders have voted resoundingly for the NBN Co deal, but the battle isn't over yet. The future of the NBN now hangs in the balance as David Thodey steps eye to eye with ACCC head Rod Sims over Telstra's so-far-inadequate SSU. The structure of the NBN, and of the entire industry, now depends on who blinks first.

Will Telstra drive separation, or the ACCC?

Will Telstra drive separation, or the ACCC?

Poised to knock back Telstra's structural separation proposal, the ACCC is rearing its head and seems determined to ensure that the separation is done right. But with the ball now back in Telstra's court, can the company be trusted to negotiate in good faith — or will it simply wait until the NBN implodes under its own weight come next election?

Telstra singing right tune, in wrong key

Telstra singing right tune, in wrong key

David Thodey may have some good ideas about where Telstra needs to go, but his direction requires hard change — and more sacrifice than many shareholders seem willing to afford. Yet as Telstra's dividends-at-any-cost strategy nears its breaking point, can Thodey keep guiding the good ship Telstra through its hard U-turn without losing key passengers overboard?
