May I respectfully point out to all PPRuNers thet, whilst I agree that AN was latterly a foreign-owned company, those of us employed therein paid our taxes to the Australian Taxation Office, NOT that of NZ.
It is not my intention to argue the merits, or otherwise, of the involvement of the Australian government, save to emphasise that Mr. Howard et al do not come out of the fiasco with lily-white hands.
Come November, I know where my vote will be going.
Kind regards to all,
TheNightOwl.
