Cloncurry locals fight to stop closure of local bank branch
Cloncurry residents are fighting to reverse the closure of a local Westpac banking branch.
Westpac last Friday told the Cloncurry Shire Council the branch, which opened in 1905, will close on May 19.
It’s angered many of the customers, who have met with the Member for Traeger, Robbie Katter this morning.
“I mean, do they look at the bottom line, these people?” Ray said.
“Or do they just look at numbers and say, ‘There’s too many heads in Cloncurry, let’s lop them’?”
