Per 9News: The Liberal Party has scored a court victory over Boroondara Council, after the council removed a number of A-frame signs from outside an early voting centre in Kew earlier this week.
The council had argued the signs were a risk to pedestrians and road users, having earlier advised candidates of a limit of one sign each.
A Supreme Court justice has ruled in favour of the party’s request for an injunction.
In challenging the council’s permit rule, Liberal Party state director Stuart Smith argued that it was a potential contradiction of implied constitutional freedom of political communication.
