What else do you expect from a bunch of C-grade lawyers who were not good enough in private practice to make silk, yet won safe seats through the clout of the ACTU ? And bear in mind most lawyers are digitally illiterate.
I'm sorry but I disagree with the suggestion of building a leading physics lab here - they frankly would be another pointless white elephant.
What does matter - first and foremost - is the construction of major public infrastructure that produces lasting and tangible benefits to all levels of society. Unfortunately the NBN isn't one.
