One response to “Sunday Trading and the Churches”

In Brisbane there has been Sunday trading for many years. Similar fears were expressed by churches here when the idea was proposed, but these proved to be nonsense, just as they will be in England. Those who wish to attend church on Sundays will be no less likely to do so once Sunday trading is allowed.

Kelvin, church representatives should pick the battles they can win. In this case, not only are they bound to lose, but they will look like idiots as well.
