To all general merchandise traders who were upset by Lord Mayor, Robert Doyle’s, food-focussed comments in today’s Herald-Sun we have posted this photo with the suggestion that you take a deep breath, relax, and let the PR circus take its course but never forget that the Queen Victoria Market has been in operation for over 130 years, survived 2 world wars, met the needs of locals and tourists alike and always included a product mix that went well beyond just food. We doubt if too many tourists have booked into their city hotel room and said “Let’s nick down to the Queen Victoria Market and grab a leg of lamb”.
Love those clouds!
