They do not have to be publicly involved, but can certainly put pressure on in the background to help resolve the issue. come on national pick your game up...

I worked there Clare - Telecom doesn't focus on its customers but on the bottom line and it's profits.

I worked there Clare – Telecom doesn’t focus on its customers but on the bottom line and it’s profits. Telecommunications is a natural monopoly and you can’t get away from that.

Labour are consistent. Curran continues the long Labour tradition of doing anything and everything to disrupt information technology in New Zealand. Labour will side with Telecom one year and with the Unionists the next in a "my enemy's enemy is my friend" strategy. Labour's enemy is an informed, educated and connected populace. Such a populace is less susceptible to extreme-Left ideology and dogma that they peddle.

I heard the avoidance yesterday Question Time. Seemed a strange response given that telecommunications are a Vital part of the country. (Imagine how the country would cease to operate without it.) Maybe the feet are paddling furiously underneath? yes. I heard the avoidance yesterday Question Time. Seemed a strange response given that telecommunications are a Vital part of the country.
