I haven't seen the proceedings or transcripts, only read what the news sites write. But all I can imagine from hat I've read is that the aj and bb plan is to project to the pollies that you dare pass this law, the cash and aircraft and flying is all going overseas. Qf will be a domestic carrier only and jetstar asia, japan, new 'premium' carrier etc will be doing all of the international flying. All of it.
The 10 year plan will be complete. And it will be the governments and unions' fault.
