The ABC has confirmed the pride flag will definitely be flying in Edenhope and Kaniva next week, and in the other towns if flags can be sourced in time.
The Victorian council on the South Australian border will now allow non-official flags to be flown on designated flagpoles.Īlthough a majority of councillors voted against the idea last month, yesterday they resolved to erect community flagpoles in the region's five largest towns - Edenhope, Kaniva, Apsley, Goroke and Harrow - and fly non-official flags that are provided by community groups. The change of heart comes in time for the flag to be flown on one of the world's most significant days for the queer community - International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia (IDAHoBIT), which is next Tuesday, May 17.
