Stop Press Letter to the Editor Dear Editor, For the public record. It comes as no surprise that Gary Hardgrave has again misrepresented the community and its views. The channel 7 promo and emotive comments purported by GH are reminiscent of Jamie Briggs misleading the Australian people via national radio and do nothing to progress a future or a relationship between the community of Norfolk Island and Australia.
