You’d really think a lower official and not the Prime Minister himself would be announcing this and reading articles, they are only going from “satellite imagery”.
It just seems, if this is not it, the PM might not look to well.
It’s been announced by the Prime Minister to the House of Representatives at the start of Question Time for today. It’s not like it’s a general press announcement - it’s intended for the Members of Parliament. It’s televised and the press is there as well, so it is certainly a public announcement, but nothing should be read into the fact that it came from the Prime Minister. It’s normal for the ‘Minister Who Has The Call’ (and at the start of Question Time, that’s the senior Minister in the Chamber) to appraise the House of any information of general interest.
It’s more satellite imagery, and it could be nothing like last time. I don’t think it makes him look bad.
“It just seems, if this is not it, the PM might not look to well.”
He could have been asked for an update on FLT 370 while talking to reporters. He also stated the debris may very well not be from FLT 370.
The debris may be from the remains of some global warmest trying to get to the Anartic trying to prove how ice free it is.
Exactly. They must already have found them or seen close-up photos of the logo, etc. Abbott is no fool.
My guess would be he’s pretty sure but doesn’t want to say so until they are on location and know without a doubt. I would guess their satellite imagery is pretty darn good.
If the U.S. found it you don't think Obama wouldn't take the opportunity to grab the spotlight and say, "We solved it?"
