That's a really interesting post, thankyou.

I always assumed he got sacked because he was completely hopeless and sending the country broke.

It's very interesting to read the truth rather than myths

Don’t vote for any of them. They just want your money!

Whitlam is often ranked in the upper-tier of Australian prime ministers by political experts and academics, with political journalist Paul Kelly writing in 1994 that "there is no doubt that in three years his government was responsible for more reforms and innovations than any other government in Australian history".

It is arguable that the Whitlam government was deposed by the actions of the CIA both financial and in their influence in the media and their propaganda resources. Any government that is opposed by foreign intelligence services acting with Australian intelligence services would find it difficult to survive because they would be unable to keep any information from being leaked to the media.

Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.
