The People's Advocate and New South Wales Vindicator

The People's Advocate and New South Wales Vindicator

"The People's Advocate and New South Wales Vindicator" was a Sydney newspaper published between December 1848 and 1856.

The paper was run by Edward John Hawksley, an English Catholic Radical, who wrote the majority of the paper's content. The newspaper focussed on the working classes of New South Wales, and was a prominent part of the political scene of the late 1840s and 50s in Sydney. It supported radical candidates like "Robert Lowe" and "John Dunmore Lang"

During its short lifetime it acted as a foil to the squatting and mercantile focus of "The Sydney Morning Herald".
