The roots of the NBN’s $31.5 billion write-off last year can be found in a fractious past when successive governments tried to fix Australia’s communication systems. https://t.co/IVcRyXCTey

Me employing @fbongiornoanu as a hook into a piece on Whitlam’s ‘fruitful period of opposition’!

[@austpolicyhistory @AustPolicyHist]

On the website, @DoyleJohnC draws attention to the Whitlam-led Labor opposition’s ‘fruitful’ development of plans during 1967-72 to reform Australia’s telecommunications system 📞

Australia does not have a national postdoc scheme. @arc_gov_au Aust Postdoc Fellowship (APD) ended in 2011. DECRA replaced it, but few recent PhDs apply. APD was for PhDs < 3 yrs exp. 110 grants for 3 yrs. ARC also targeted 15% Discovery $ to "ECR-only" projects (< 5 yrs PhD) 1/n

On Putin's 70th birthday, the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to a Russian human rights group that he shut down, a Ukrainian human rights group that is documenting his war crimes, and a Belarusian human rights activist whom his ally Lukashenko has imprisoned. https://t.co/5Yozif0Qis

My article on @AustPolicyHist - Ignorance about the Federation is particularly noticeable in the ‘eastern states’, where the interests of the big guns of the Federation, New South Wales and Victoria, are often conflated with those of the Commonwealth. https://t.co/fQUQivnWqa
