Rainbow Flag Graffiti in Mallala

Published 11th November 2020

Adelaide Plains Council (Council) is disappointed to advise that the rainbow flag, flying at East Reserve Mallala, was the subject of explicit graffiti overnight.

Elected Members, at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 27 July 2020, unanimously resolved to fly the rainbow flag for the month of November to recognise ‘Pridevember’, a month long celebration of inclusivity and diversity in South Australia, and as a demonstration of support for local Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex and Questioning (LGBTIQ) communities.

As a Council, and as a community, we cannot condone this act of hate. A replacement rainbow flag will be flown again from Thursday 12 November 2020, raised and lowered daily for the remainder of November.
