"Who cares"???
I'm sure the thousands of workers who are employed by Virgin and Tiger care, they are after Australians who hold jobs.
While the majority of these airlines are not majority owned there are many Australian shareholders.Why should the minority overseas shareholders in QF be given protection while the minority Australian VA shareholders get wiped out.
I am all for protecting and maximizing Australian jobs but Bob's idea is way too simplistic.
He might like to look into the rights given to all those foreign Airlines which operate across the Tasman.
I love all this touchy, freely bullsh1t about heritage, stage coaches,steam trains and flying boats are all part of our heritage but they too left the scene when they were no longer viable.
