An apology

It has been brought to my attention that the position of my car adjacent to Weeroona Park may have been misinterpreted by those attending the Anzac Day observances as having a crass and political motive; I assure them that this was not the case.
I apologise to anyone genuinely distressed by this, and I ask that they understand my motives for parking there had nothing to do with my campaign and everything to do with being able to access my car easily once I had finished singing in the Anzac Day Service with the Granite Belt Choir.
Please accept my sincere apology.
Mary Rofe
