IT MAY have been coincidence rather than conniving but neither is really good enough.
I’m talking about the timing of the announcement of the new bishop of the Grafton Diocese.
The timing of the announcement on the first day of the public inquiry’s hearing into evidence of child abuse at the Anglican Church’s North Coast Children’s Home was insensitive.
By all accounts the evidence heard yesterday was harrowing and heartbreaking.
It’s hard to think of adults breaking down in the witness stand recounting what they had to endure as children.
