The bill for Pike Mine re-entry is expected to blow out.
The $26 million is not enough money :eek:

Even $26Million is simply far too much to enter a mine for a look around . They may never be able to recover any bodies, so
$26-$35Mill, really. Do the families not think thats too much .

Isnt it about time everyone just says NO , instead of stringing the families along for political gains. ?

1451527 2018-07-14 08:47:00 100% agree

I also find it sad that the families haven't moved on.

What do they seek to accomplish by re-burying the bones elsewhere? Sounds like superstition to me

1451529 2018-07-14 09:21:00 Let’s face it, the Government doesn’t want anybody to find out that some of the miners at least could have been rescued if a Stupid Policeman hadn’t forbidden the Mine Rescue Team entry to the mine.

I'll bet the Government isn’t game to call International Tenders for suitably qualified Mining Company’s to enter the mine and recover all the bodies they can.

They’d probably recover all the bodies and reopen the mine before you knew it.

The boy’s in Thailand were real lucky that guys that knew what they were doing were allowed to run the show. :)

1451532 2018-07-14 20:17:00 My thoughts are probably horrific to those people but:

A)They have a giant tomb already
B)What bodies? The charred (and now decayed) pieces?


Leave it alone, visit the mine, which can be left as a grave.

No doubt about it, Key & Co wanted nothing to do with the recovery of the bodies, in fact they didn’t want to deal with the responsibility for the accident either.

However, I suspect Labour have made the promises, got the votes, and are now looking for a way to wriggle out the situation.

Time will tell. ;)

For once we can agree

1451535 2018-07-14 22:57:00 This whole situation pisses me off more than words here will allow.

They're dead. Get over it. They did a dangerous job and they died. Yes, it's sad but move on. What's left is already entombed.

And some stupid bint showing up on the News last night on behalf of the families saying the whole country is supporting them and the Guvvmint should spend any amount it takes just put me right over the edge.
