City of Sydney Councillor Angela Vithoulkas has demanded an apology from Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore for sending Greens Councillor Irene Doutney as her representative to the 2013 Greek Festival of Sydney, held at Darling Harbour last month.
Ms Vithoulkas, the daughter of two Greek immigrants, has accused the Lord Mayor of playing politics with the Greek community, opining that as the only councillor of Greek heritage, she was the obvious choice to represent the City if the Lord Mayor could not attend.
In a letter seen by City News, dated March 19, Ms Vithoulkas demanded to know why Ms Doutney was sent as the City’s representative.
Ms Doutney, meanwhile, apologised for any offence caused to Ms Vithoulkas or the Greek community.
