They have the biggest tomb/memorial there already.

What do they think they''ll find?

Once, ex-DIL put her deceased cat in the freezer for later cremation.
They accidentally knocked the plug out and forgot about the cat....

We came along months later, and OMG, just as well husband has no sense of smell. And he had to get it out with a shovel.....mostly sludge.
That was the end of that freezer too.

It is just another way to waste money and is unlikely to achieve anything worthwhile.

1442241 2017-11-20 19:50:00 And they are funneling $7Mil into it .
Not into the actual re-entry, that $7mil into committees & investigations . Money well spent, cause, there's plenty more NZ can borrow

Add to that the mine has partially collapsed in some places .

The families have been led on with false hope since day 1 .
If it was safe the survivors would have turned around & gone back in .

his flag folly conceit?

1442244 2017-11-20 21:36:00 I still believe lives may have been saved had the Police not forbid the Mine Rescue team from entering the mine.

There was a long portal into the actual mine and there could be bodies along the length of it.

Remember, there were two survivors who were in that portal and managed to get out.

Is this the song-sheet where you borrow $90000000000 to fund unaffordable tax-cuts for you and your rich mates,
then pretend that you're fiscally responsible?
That song-sheet, Bryan? What a joke:lol:

Hindsight is easy , some years down the road.
There are plenty of examples of rescue teams dying in mines. What if that 2nd explosion happened when a rescue team was in there ?

Remember, its the she'll be right , ignore any safety concerns that got the men killed in the first place. They actually knew the mine was unsafe .
Did we learn nothing , thats how it seems. Some seem to want to ignore real risks & send more men in, to achieve nothing .
