Richard Luxton has been involved in a nasty game of back and forth with the telco giant regarding a portion of his 10,000 acres of Coomalie bushland, near the turnoff to the iconic Litchfield National Park.
"That person went way off the easement, I guess because the path has a two-and-a-half-metre erosion gully in the middle of it, and got hopelessly bogged."
"I've got correspondence going back 15 years, pleading with Telstra, pleading with them to resolve this matter," he said."Telstra have argued over the last couple of years that they are a poor struggling telco, and I'm a wealthy landowner, and that I should do between $150,000 and $300,000 worth of earthworks, and I've just said 'no'."

Candidates face Paul Murray's pub test in Launceston | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Paul Murray took his ‘pub test’ to Launceston on Tuesday night to find out what matters most to locals.\n\nVoters asked Tasmanian candidates for the Senate about how they will tackle 'dirty tricks' in the election, including Medicare scare tactics. \n\nFormer senator Jacqui Lambie from the Jacqui Lambie Network says her Party has strict donation rules, which means their politicians do not ‘owe anybody except the people of Tasmania’.\n\nLiberal Senator Eric Abetz says the most important election deceit he witnessed was the ‘dishonest Mediscare campaign’, arguing it is the reason why Labor MP Ross Hart does not deserve his seat. \n\nMr Abetz says under the federal Liberal government, every recommended medication has been put on the Public Benefits Scheme list since they were elected in 2013, proving the Coalition’s investment in Medicare.\n
