Surely Council ...An interesting comment from John;<br /><br />Surely Council has better things to do than discuss such a matter totally outside its control and sphere of influence?<br /><br />Such an issue is NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with local government. It is an established public holiday based solely on historical FACT – that the colony of South Australia was proclaimed by the then Governor on that day and the holiday is named accordingly and is historically and factually correct. It has nothing to do with mainland settlement – which actually occurred on 26 January 1788 in SYDNEY – which happens also to be on the mainland of Australia. Mainland Settlement Day is actually already celebrated on Australia Day – I suppose he will want to change the name of that Holiday too!Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16458824810686127102noreply@blogger.com
