Heed call of 'Lest We forget' from 'Speak up' page 8 today's Westside News.

"As an ex-serviceman I get increasingly annoyed with the lip service some organisations show to our servicemen who served, and also paid the supreme sacrifice. Too often war memorials all over the place have been moved because it was not convenient for roads, and far too often trees planted to venerate memories have been removed at bureaucratic whim. The latest desecration is to allow the hallowed ground of Toowong Anzac Park to be used as a car park. A war memorial has its place in the community all year round. We should take care to heed the call of Lest We Forget...because by its behaviour the Brisbane City Council has!" JM Barnett.
