Yes, I have to say the fact this “Brian Mc” guy seems to have created his Twitter account just for his petition should raise some alarm bells. Only made his first tweet on March 5 and presumably, has been waiting for mainstream media outlets to bite.

Hopefully the ABC’s Media Watch program is planning a decent investigation for this one.

It has been proven as fake, having been traced back to a homophobic subreddit that suggested the idea. Hope media watch bring some light to it.

If anything, I’d be more likely to go with a credit union because I know they’re not a bank!

Focus groups / research panels must be telling them the opposite, as since the feds changed rules allowing credit unions to call themselves banks a couple years ago almost every single credit union in the country has since rebranded or is planning to rebrand as a bank.

Well that’s interesting. I’m with CUA

Example: Queensland Country Credit Union (big sponsor of NRL in Queensland) became Queensland Country Bank before it signed a naming rights deal with Townsville’s North Queensland Stadium.

Is Credit Union a naughty phrase? Legally and technically that’s what they still are! I’d think you wouldn’t want any association with the term bank, thanks to the actions of the Big 4.

There is now a second petition calling for Golden Gaytime to be made vegan :roll_eyes:

Anyone can start a petition on change.org. It really means nothing.

And the problem with that is…? Any vegan Golden Gaytime would likely be sold alongside, rather than replace the regular version.

Exactly. There are Vegan Magnums and Vegan Drumsticks already on the market. I tried the Vegan Affogato Drumsticks once. They were disgusting. :laughing:

Looks like I was wrong - today’s Tele did have a a Easter Show liftout - all 8 pages of it. Not as in depth as previous years. Seemingly paid for by the Greyhound as Pets campaign.
