OK - fair enough, stuff happens.
The minister however says people need to know that we have two new ships ordered for 2025.
Oh goodie, that's all right then. What a stupid thing to say.

Please keep to topic or start your own.
There is no political advantage for the Labour in the minister's failure.
On Tue, 7 Mar 2023 19:03:01 -0000 (UTC), TonyThe failure is the one I pointed out in my first post on this subject, I used the English language in the hope that most people would understand.

What failure? There have been a number of break-downs on the ferries
(from both companies). The current government had already acted to get
new ships and informed people of that - no failure; why are you going
off topic again about political advantage, Tony?
On Wed, 8 Mar 2023 02:47:23 -0000 (UTC), TonyIt was political bullshit that doesn't resolve the current problems Rich! A reasonable comment would be along the lines of the solution when the seamen used to strike at holiday time. Call in the RNZAF!

His comment "The minister however says people need to know that we have two new
ships
ordered for 2025." is stupid in that it deos not address the plight of thsoe
that are stranded. That is an obvious failure.
problem with the ferries is not part of a politicians job, that work
was underway - what would have been a 'succesful" comment in your
view, Tony?
Your attempt to change the subject is contemptible.
