Bid for justice or partisan attack?

I enjoy reading the Peninsula News but I do not look forward to having to flick past the regular diatribe that Edward James pays for.

Mr James likes to portray himself as an independent voice and paint himself as someone trying to get justice for us all but how true is this?

It seems more and more apparent that the purpose of his advertisement is to make partisan attacks on the Labor Party while continually ignoring the other side of politics.

Why is Mr James still complaining about members of the previous ALP government?

Why is there never any criticism of the current Liberal state government even though they give no indication they are any more willing to undertake an inquiry into Gosford Council?

We are supposed to believe, according to Mr James's regular wraparound advertisements, that his issues with the ALP apparently revolve around their unwillingness to investigate Gosford Council or the actions of ALP members on the Council and yet we never seem to read about the current local state member being the former mayor of Gosford.

It came as no surprise to me to see Mr James chatting with Liberal Party members handing out election material on Friday (September 7) morning.

Likewise it came as no surprise to read your sister publication where Mr James has two photos of ALP posters he claims are illegally put up but none of the countless Vote Liberal posters

I'm sure he, like the rest of us, have seen on the Peninsula (at Woy Woy station, near Everglades etc).

Mr James should start being honest with his "readers" and admit that he has a clear bias towards the Liberal Party and an irrational hatred of the ALP.
