Subi Post Gets It Wrong

Subiaco Post

I have had my differences with the City of Vincent during this difficult and flawed local government so-called reform process, but I have always been able to maintain a constructive relationship with Mayor John Carey and his Council.

I was more than surprised, therefore, to see this item in the Subiaco Post this weekend, which implies that Vincent has eyes on part of Subiaco.

I contacted John Carey and was assured, as I was sure was the case, that at no time had Vincent made any proposal to incorporate or even affect any part of Subiaco. 

I have contacted the Subiaco Post to point out its error and ask that a correction be published in the next print edition but more immediately on their website and digital edition, in the interests of truth and good relations between Councils, which is especially important given the current threats to local government in Perth.

Not that Cambridge or Perth seem very keen on good relations between Councils, but that's another story.
