"Hope Govt is more inclined to corporate with Telstra in rolling out 5G in view of the pandemic." The Australian Government cannot incorporate with Telstra Corporation even if Josh and Scott want to do that.
Chifley found out that in the banks nationalization case (Bank of New South Wales v The Commonwealth, HC, 1948).
Even the Kiefel High Court will IMHO not allow the Feds to do that just for the sake of 5G and the Wuhan virus.
That Federal Government overreach is not allowable under the Australian Constitution and Sir Robert Menzies' legacy will not be burnt up so easily so I do not like your chances of that suggestion coming into fruition even if the Commonwealth has the idea somewhere in its dreams.
