$47,000 a week has been revealed as the berth fee being charged in Scotland for the first of two new Spirit of Tasmania ships.
It travelled from its construction site in Finland and arrived at Edinburgh where it’ll sit for an unknown time, because Devonport’s berthing upgrade is 2 years away from completion.
Labor leader Dean Winter’s not missed a chance to keep turning the screws on the Premier.
“Tasmanians know what he’s up to here, he’s looking to put this ship as far away from Tasmania as possible so that he doesn’t have to face up to the biggest infrastructure stuff up in Tasmania’s history.”
Deputy Premier Guy Barnett served it back up to Labor
“We’re just jack of the undermining and relentless negativity and the scaremongering that Mr Winter and the Labor party have been doing.”
