Mr Curr Defends Duty in Separation Debate
A harsh critique targets Edward Carr for neglecting duties to support separation. The writer argues Carr should prioritize the March Legislative Council session over January actions, claiming his public stance as a separationist carries higher obligation than private support. The piece accuses Curr of impudence and insists the district expected steadfast advocacy in a time of trial.
