Last
week we posted an article about the latest petition to be presented at the
market. It is a petition asking the Victorian Government to "withdraw support for QVM development".
The
petition purports to be from the Save Vic Market Group convened by Dr. John
Price but we have now been informed that group may not be involved. We have
emailed Dr. Price seeking clarification, but haven't received a response as
yet.
Social
media is claiming it is a "trader petition" but no trader has accepted
responsibility for the petition and the official trader representatives (QVMAC
Representatives) discussed the issue at a meeting on Tuesday and confirmed they
are not involved.
The
format of this petition, its timing, its intent, and just who is behind it, are
all aspects that need questioning.
