You didn't know we had any?
I'm talking about the airline, which asked for a government loan of AU$1.4 billion.
Scott Morrison apparently coughed in their faces, and said: "Computer says: 'NO' "
Gov. apparently feels that commercial interests should buy into the airline, it's not for Gov. to buy, and they don't want to favour individual companies, despite many voices expressing the necessity of maintaining local competition for QANTAS.
Still, I can see their point......
BIG JOKE: "Virgin Australia" - Ownership China 40% Singapore Airlines 20% Etihad 20% Branson 10%
They are now in voluntary administration.
I must modify my home page to include their logo in case it becomes history.
