Australia eyes ‘front of the quantum pack’ – Michael West

Ed Husic is a self-declared quantum nerd. “I want to make sure we’re at the front of the quantum pack,” the federal industry and science minister told a quantum commercialisation forum at CSIRO’s Lindfield site in Sydney. “It absolutely burns me, when I just recall how there were five countries in the 1940s that built their own computer, and we were one of them and we just gave it all away,” he said.

Labor backbencher Ed Husic has called on both major parties to reach a fake news “armistice” before the next election, arguing that political scare campaigns are in neither’s best interests.

The western Sydney MP also admitted Labor was “outgunned and outspent” in the digital campaign waged in the lead-up to the May 18 federal election.
