Reviews

Dean Collins As an Aussie expat living in New York I'd often wondered why and where it all went so wrong with the Australian NBN.What the heck happened in the lead up to this in federal politics that we went from cutting edge to.....well.....where we are now.After reading a review in the SMH about this doco I bought a copy from ABC and was surprised and horrified...basically Malcolm Turnbull is now in leadership because of personal ambition and greed of the Labor party.This gripping 3 part doco details all of the twists and turns of the period and makes you realize politicians are very very human.
