The resultant emphatic election victory for Fraser doesn’t vindicate the actions of the GG (not unconstitutional but unprecedented), nor Fraser blocking supply (not unconstitutional but unprecedented), nor Bjelke-Petersen appointing a partisan to the QLD Labor Senate vacancy (not unconstitutional but unprecedented) which allowed Fraser to block supply to cascade the events leading up to the dismissal.

If these events didn’t happen, who knows how the electorate would have voted?

It was a clusterfaark of the highest proportions, the likes of which we hopefully will never see again.

The most amazing thing to occur many years after these events was the fact that Whitlam and Fraser became friends and rallied for common causes, something unthinkable on Remembrance Day 1975.

I've trying to find it this morning but I remember a cartoon in The Bulletin from about 1985 (might have been by Pickering) but you had Hawke leaning against the bar with a beer, surrounded by Whitlam, Keating and others with a newspaper on the ground with the headline "WHITLAM SACKED"

Hawkey's holding court saying, "Look Dont worry about it, in 10 years I'll be Prime Minister, you'll be Treasurer, you'll be living it up in the UNECO in Paris, Gough, and we'll get Fraser a job as an eminent person..."
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Twice failed and utterly rejected by the electorate former MP Nicolle Flint keeps taking pot shots from the cheap seats.

She’s like the dog shit on your shoe that you can’t seem to get the smell off.
