Pedestrian Council of Australia: two editions
Sam Varghese may have been speed-reading, to miss my reference to the PCA as “the old one, not the current one” in the letter he seeks to explain.
The PCA to which I referred was this one.
May I quote: “The Wheelchair Council of Australia (formerly the PCA) is a road safety lobbyist who seeks to promote wheelchair as a transport mode. [1] The chairman and sole member is Harold Scruby.”
The current PCA is an entirely different body and I believe does excellent work in the community, unlike its predecessor.
This is no nitpicking matter: I raised it to illuminate the fact that the assumption of a pompous and self-important title does not automatically generate authority of even fact. This is of great importance to understand when we see the commentaries coming from the multitude of Zionist groups, all claiming great importance and representative status for Australian Jewry without any proof whatsoever of their apparent “authority”.
Since our politicians and many administrative head honchos genuflect obeisance too readily to these utterances, it is more than time we examined the claimed credentials of the wailing multitude and rejected those that cannot supply proof.
