[unclear: Madams],
[unclear: itastrophe] in Victoria has been averted. [unclear: All] of you who were at Wednesday's SRC may [unclear: ee].
[unclear: left] wing or Maoist faction (which can be [unclear: istered] around the desks of Salient) has had [unclear: iehold] on Victoria too long — it is time they [unclear: opped]. It is time for "Joe average" to stand be counted - as you did on May 22nd's SRC you to those who did, which ever way you
a good laugh, I will read the next Salient - [unclear: t] their version of the meeting will read mor [unclear: nee] fiction.
[unclear: le] we are on the subject, isn't it time that [unclear: cal] political commentaries were relegated [unclear: etters] column? For many years, Salient [unclear: n] dominated by a small number of [unclear: individual] completely dominate student press. [unclear: A] who don't conform to their way of [unclear: think-tt] get very far in Salient.
overwhelming majority in favour of [unclear: rtainly] proves that Salient does not rep [unclear: etive] the views of the average student the they painted of Andrew was more like [unclear: ade] horror film - personal and unfair.
[unclear: ppears] most students would prefer a 'fun' that keeps politics to a minimum, and opinions [unclear: us] like Peter Beache's (to be fair, my own ) to the letters column.
[unclear: conlusion,] I appeal to New Zealanders - [unclear: ve] one of the nicest countries that I [unclear: en] I beg you not to let it fall to the comm [unclear: as] so many others have done.
[unclear: ge] New Zealanders to stand up for their but at the same time, remember true demo [unclear: neans] that you must co-operate with the [unclear: y] even if you voted against that majority - wouldn't hurt to keep the strikes down!
Peace,
A traveller who has seen the light.
