Colebatch/NWWU edit
The article claimed that Colebatch's term was cut short because of the riot. According to contemporary accounts, he was already in some trouble as he took the premiership while in the upper house and the member who was supposed to take his place had apparently reneged on the deal. A better (and ideologically independent) source than the one used is required for this claim. I have also replaced mention of "non-union" with NWWU which, while apparently in the sway of business and government, was still a union. Hack (talk) 12:11, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- Good call. I think the NWWU, though, was only formed after those workers were brought onto the wharves in 1917? I'll try and find some more info about that... Sam Wilson 00:25, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
