Beddoes says Anthony 'paranoid'

Friday, February 29, 2008

Update: 5:07PM Paranoid, with a 50s chip about race that just cant dislodge.

These were the observation of ousted Opposition leader Mick Beddoes as the kindest of descriptions of what little he had read on Dr James Anthonys 300 odd pages FHRC Media Report.

"Its a hyped up version of Dr Shameems other claim to fame, which is the Election Inquiry, based on FLPs unproven complaints which the Inquiry accepted as fact," Mr Beddoes said.

"The language and tone used by Mr. Anthony, coupled with suggestions of cancelling expatriates permits, because they somehow dominated of our media, only serves to exposes the very shallow and limited knowledge he had of the subject he was engaged by Dr Shameem to cover. If in fact the intent was to cover it properly?

"Some of his accusations and conclusions are not worth the paper its printed and I for one would like to know how much the Fiji Human Rights Commission paid out for trash like that.
