Getting information from Jeremy Rockliff about the Spirits project has been like drawing blood from a stone – Tasmanians have had to fight for every scrap of detail while the bills keep piling up.
We now know that the cost of hiding Spirit IV in Scotland has ballooned to $4.3 million as of April, but we still don’t know what the final figure is.
The Spirits fiasco is the defining feature of Jeremy Rockliff’s latest minority government. Tasmanians deserve to know how much more Jeremy Rockliff has spent to bury his political disaster on the other side of the world.
The Liberals secretly bailed out a Finnish shipbuilder to the tune of $80 million, and they famously forgot to build a berth for the ships, costing the state over $400 million in infrastructure blowouts.
It’s time for Jeremy Rockliff to front up and release the full cost of this disaster.
