I, along with other members, including Rowan Ramsey and Steve Irons, was misrepresented in the Australian online yesterday by the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, who said that 'more and more MPs were breaking ranks with Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull's plan to demolish the NBN'. I was highlighting a broken promise made by the government to the constituents of Brisbane; I by no means said what I was quoted as saying in the Australian online.
