Back to bailing-out loss-makers


So now the government is considering bailing out the Overlander. 51 percent of poll respondents to Stuff say they wouldn't use the service to keep it going. That should be good enough for a Minister spending somebody else's money.

The Overlander was constantly unreliable. Not a proposition that any self-respecting tourist agent would want to promote. And unfortunately that's where the service's viable market lies.
