About me:
Stephen Conroy

Add to My Profile | More Videos
I was born in England and my family moved to Australia when I was 10. I was lucky and grew up in Canberra. I joined the ACT Labor Party in 1983. My interests have always revolved around economic and social justice issues.
I moved to Victoria in 1987 and have lived in the west of Melbourne for almost all of that period. I am married and have a beautiful daughter as well as two dogs and a cat.

I’m now the Minister for Broadband, Communications & the Digital Economy. At the moment I’m spending lots of time implementing Labor’s plan to revolutionise Australia’s internet infrastructure by creating a new, high speed, National Broadband network, with connection times up to 40 times faster than current speeds! Check out Labor's plan for High Speed Broadband!



Representing the Labor Party has been a lifelong ambition. It is the party which is committed to working Australians. Australia is faced with a critical choice in 2007: it can turn inwards and seek to insulate and isolate itself from what is happening in our region and around the world or it can choose to meet the challenges of the new century.

I’m also a passionate member of the Collingwood Football Club and support Chelsea in the English Premier League!

Hi Stephen, congratulations on being appointed Minister for communications, it's brilliant to see Sen Coonan out of her position and very much enlightening to see the ALP with a forward thinking direction to such a vital portfolio in these emerging times...
I wish you all the best, and look forward to seeing some well needed reforms and ideas,
kind regards, Adrian

Hi Stephen,
Congratulations to Labor for winning the 2007 Election by a landslide.
After Mike Kelly won Eden Marnario I knew Labor would win by the margin we did.
I read that Gavu=in and Jacinta are going weell in the half Senat Election?
I voted Labor and when Kevin declared Victory I smiled and though just what Australia needs a Rudd labor Government after 11 and a half years of John Howard.

Dear Mr Conroy,

As per your comments in SMH that a mandatory "clean-feed" internet service for all homes, schools and public computers to filter out banned content would be implemented should ALP gain power.

Does this mean as an adult, I will no longer be able to view content that is perfectly legal, but deemed inappropriate by the ACMA? Or will this Clean Feed be opt-in, the much more sensible solution, where adults can still view content that is inappropriate for children?

Thanks for your time,
Michael

ARE YOU ENROLLED

With the Howard Government finally getting the fortitude to call an election most likely this Sunday, it is now soever important that all of us are enrolled.

Also ensure everyone you know is enrolled so collectively we can rid this great Nation of this insidious Howard Government.

The ONLY alternative is to vote for a Kevin Rudd Labor Government AND vote 1 above the line on the Senate Ballot for LABOR.

Lets do it everyone.

Keep up the good work in the Senate. The high speed broadband policy is good news. You will make a worthy replacement for the dopey Helen Coonan.

Kevin Rudd isn't my friend so I'm saying this to you- the obvious response to the laughable Lib smear on Rudd's health is for him to challenge Johnny Howard to a game of cricket- cue: endless re-runs of Howard's 'bowling' attempt during that visit to Pakistan. And what was that vision of Costello in a track suit today?! *stunned silence*

Hey Steve, is it true that Helen Coonan inherited Richard Alstons Commodore 64 with datacassette when she moved into the Communications portfolio?

Word is that she had to form a task force to find the 'any' key.

Little Boy Johnnie left the country for his 68th birthday. Did he really think that we Aussies would forget his 68th??????

We didn't. He has got to go. To a far far better place. & not as our PM.

RUDDY for PM.

Hiya Stevie,

Re: Bracks resignation

Mr Bracks is to be admired for giving up a fabulous political career for the sake of his family.

Mr Brack has a heart. Then most Labor people do have heart. They care.

I wish him & his all the best.

Thank you for accepting my add.

I'm excited to vote. I only turned 18 this year. 'Tis a pity, really. I have had opinions on politics for far too long, to wait till now.

Alas, it is here.

I like your views on faster broadband. I'm psyched. :)

Thanks again,

As a taxpayer I'd rather have my money invested fixing our essential infrastructure which has been ignored so long. That's why I like your broadbrand plan, it's good to see at least one party looking to the future.

Jul 17 2007 6:17 PM

Enjoyed the bulletins on the questions of broadband. I have a question too if you have time to answer it, I live on the Gold Coast, many areas of this region get reasonable broadband, I've lived in a new estate with pair gains and couldn't get anything but slow dial-up. Will there be any hope for people in that situation who do live in areas where broadband is available?
Sean

Stephen

What are the ALP's plans for Telstra? Because I have found that prices for telecommunications seem to be rising every few months? What can a Rudd Labor Government deliver in response to this?
Oscar





Jul 13 2007 12:22 AM

Steve, i never thought you be a popularist twat like the rest of them. Come on i can believe Tin Tin liking the chaser, but Chelsea and Collingwood? Your throwing votes away! Anyway, I hope this snail mail gets to you in time. All the best for November, Oscar.
