Point of view

The langauge used is unbalanced. In particular his odd-ball ideas could not possibly be described as socialist.--Grahame (talk) 08:50, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed that particular sentence - it was complete POV. Unfortunately there's almost nothing reliable on Stevenson out there - it does seem that he was a bit of a weird guy, but the best I can find is a speech from Craig Duby claiming that he was an avowed supporter of the Citizens Electoral Council. A few other non-reliable sources mention this, but I can't find something definite. Frickeg (talk) 08:57, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He had some far-right views (League of Rights-ish, if I recall) and at one point, if I recall rightly, was living in his office. I'm sure the Canberra Times covered it at some point. Rebecca (talk) 10:12, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
