A “furious” Jacinta Allan has accused a pro-Palestine group of stoking division after a planned demonstration in Bourke Street Mall led Myer to cancel the launch of its Christmas window display.
A person claiming to be an organiser from Disrupt Wars, identified only as Amy by 3AW Radio, said the “Crash the Christmas Windows” action outside the launch of the display on Sunday would not be going ahead in light of Myer’s decision to abandon its event.
