Retail trade talks reignite

By Raquel Mustillo TREASURER Rob Lucas has reignited debate over the state’s “archaic, confusing and shambolic” shop trading laws which restrict two of Millicent’s supermarkets from opening on Sundays and public holidays.

The state is taking a heavy-handed response.

Mon, May 3, 2021 This article was originally published in The Conversation. It was written by Professor Wayne Eastman. The most powerful evidence for the prosecution at the trial of Derek Chauvin was a video showing the then-Minneapolis police officer pinning a pleading George Floyd to the ground by kneeling on his neck until he grew silent and then died.
