I doubt these will stay on the front pages for long so;

Abbott denies having prior knowledge of Qantas grounding - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Tony Abbott tells Parliament he 'had no prior notice'' of Qantas lock-out | News.com.au

One of the comments (not mine) at the bottom of the news.com article…….
Abbots was told that Qantas "HAD" shut down at 16.45, but was he told well beforehand that they "WOULD" shut down. He accuses government of failing to "interfere" with a "business problem". If they had done so, he would have accused them of "interfering" with a "business matter"

Good to see the tide turning away from Qantas over at Murdochsville…..they obviously sway with popular opinion and Qantas are losing this PR battle badly ( guess that's why Livvy's been in hiding since her retired/grounded incident…she'd only make it even worse!!)
