Here’s an article from this week’s Free Press Leader. Great to see that the media has picked up on the anti-social trolling that this campaign too many times has had to deal with. Over the ANZAC day weekend we posted that the “trolls” had crossed the line of decency in a misguided attempt to demonise one of the biggest grassroots democratic campaigns in Australia at the expense of the Upwey RSL. As we have already mentioned in previous posts that the RSL knew it to be an unsubstantiated rumour and our campaign quickly denied that any boycott of the dawn service was planned. Of course the dawn service went off without a hitch and it was great to see so many from our community supporting this important day.
For the handful of anti-social misfits who think that such behaviour is acceptable we point out that it didn’t take too long for local media to make inquiries that resulted in the truth coming out.
Thanks to all who supported the campaign over this issue and the many positive posts we received in bringing this stupid and bullying behaviour to light.
