Rock Eisteddfod and Liquor Licence Online Petitions

Wednesday, February 17, 2010

Member for Swan Hill, Peter Walsh, is encouraging those who regularly use the internet to access the two online petitions that the Coalition have set up in protest at the Brumby Government’s arrogant and poorly thought out actions in relation to the funding cuts for the popular Rock Eisteddfod and the exorbitant increases to Liquor Licence fees.

“These two online petitions provide outraged community members the opportunity to express their dissatisfaction with the Brumby Government’s actions,” Mr Walsh said.

“To protest at the slashing of funding for the Rock Eisteddfod access the petition at www.savetherocka.com.au and to express your concerns regarding the effect the new Liquor Licensing fees will have on your organisation or club go to www.saveourpub.com.au.

“The Brumby Government are refusing to acknowledge the outrage in the community over these issues and it is up to all of us to register our dissatisfaction and disgust,” Mr Walsh said.
