THE UKRAINE FLAG FLIES IN HOBART BUT NOT IN LAUNCESTON


Flying the Ukraine flag was on Launceston's GUNNAdo list but apparently someone deemed that the UKRAINE EMBASSY needed to approve. It seems that approval was either not sought or at the embassy they were too busy repelling the Russians to deal with such bureaucratic minutiae. As it so often is at Launceston's Town Hall community aspirations drop off the  GUNNAdo list just like First Nations reconciliation aspirations do and have.
