One Nation Treasury Spokesperson Barnaby Joyce defends raising the possibility of Chinese involvement in the Telstra outage, arguing the government still hasn't ruled out the scenario despite dismissing the speculation. “I said at the time, it’s quite clear when you played the interview that it's something that should be ruled out,” Mr Joyce told Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. “I just heard the minister speaking then, and I didn’t hear it ruled out. “I think it was a reasonable question to ask.”
