The number and variety of ‘Red Herrings’ now being used by the Rhodesian Front to divert attention from the Constitutional issues at stake gives some cause for grave concern. What the hell has Zambia and its internal problems and policies go to do with the referendum. Nobody in his right mind now living in Rhodesia wants majority rule. Kenneth Kaunda once exchanged with me private unpublished telephone numbers but I wouldn’t visit or live in Zambia for all the tea in China. Nor would I personally make money there as many of my friends of differing views unashamedly do.
