Yes we were very lucky for 7 years, but over the last 3-4 months we are now experiencing what many tens of thousands of others right around Australia experience - third world broadband at peak times, 5-6 days a week.
This is a huge issue and would be having a significant impact on the Australian economy. The media need to get busy and push this issue as part of the national broadband policy/strategy discussion.
If I were labour i'd be promising to fix this ASAP. That might just get them over the line.
PS: that's a massive hint for you Bill Shorten
