    Default Sen Conroy still Minister of Communications ??

    I heard part of the new Ministerial line up but I didnt hear or missed if Sen Conroy still holds the portfolio.
    Now the elections are over and Ministers assigned, maybe we can get things moving.

    Sadly he is back although I am going to enjoy Turnbull who is both business savvy and knowledgeable in technology facing off with him.

    It's a great shame Senator Fielding has lost his seat. I don't follow his religious beliefs but he did save us from Rudd's ETS and take the time to research the issue. He should get an OA where as Conroy should get a dunces hat and boot.

    He was a MAJOR supporter of Gillard so he was always going to stay. That's why Gillard announced a 'review' of the internet filter rather than making Conroy look stupid in public by canning the thing outright, even though the 'review' will have the same effect in the end.

    Conroy doesn't need any assistance whatsoever to make himself look stupid.

    You'll get no argument from me on that score. It's a crying shame when you look at the appalling quality of Communications Ministers we've had to put up with for the last decade. Alston was as big a tosser as Conroy, albeit in different ways.
