Labor . Through the ages trying to send Australians into poverty

People make it sound much worse being without a new government. As long there isn't a new government the old 1 stays in place. If a new law is needed you just need a majority of the new elected parlement. It isn't ideal but it works...the country still pays its bills. In such a moment you're a true parlement democracy.

I was sitting just behind Ken Wreidt in the Senate chamber when he moved the first of a number of crunch motions designed to pass the Budget. Amusingly this motion needed to be moved by a Minister under standing orders and Wreidt had been sacked but didn’t know it. From the look on his face I can assure all Whitlam had not told Wreidt about the dismissal. Equally, Reg Withers was grinning and clearly aware I went back to my office then walked through Kings Hall to the front entrance. As I reached the door Whitlam and his extensive entourage stormed past me onto the steps. Historically Kerr’s dismissal had ample precedents historically (Jack Lang/Governor Game as an example) and the result was a democratic election

The second worst prime ministers in history

One of the greatest days in Australian history. There should be a Public Holiday named in Honour of Sir John Kerr. Tenth of March each year would be ideal, as it is already a redundant Public Holiday (Labour Day) which means absolutely nothing to anybody. It would also serve as a reminder of the perils of electing comically incompetent Labor Misgovernments - Goof Witless, Dishonest Bob the "Poor Children's Friend", Chopsticks Keating, Krudd, Gillard, Krudd, AnAl Alwaysleazy.

I love u Country

CIA overthrow.

I believe that a test case which went before the full Bench of the High Court of Australia found that Sir John Kerr had in fact violated Section 64 of the Constitution of Australia by dismissing Gough Whitlam.

Forgetting to mention the CIA's involvement & the Murdoch propaganda's influence on the election that followed I see.

Malcolm Fraser continued to evolve, and to write DANGEROUS ALLIES. Australians need to dispense with the txrrorist states of UK/CA/IL/US, and work with China, Indonesia, Iran, Russia and many others of the Multi-Polar Harmonic Order, rather than the AUTOCRATIC TOTALITARIANISM of London and Wall Street.

Five Eyes, CIA and the Palace PRECLUDE democracy and sovereignty for Australians. Then as now.

Now for the true story. Whitlam discovered he had been conned by the Fabian Socialists and the US, and that seven prominent Aussies were CIA agents. He was preparing to read the list in Parliament when the CIA/MI6 intervened, sacked the Whitlam Government, and has run Australia ever since. By 1984, Australia was ruled by just three men: Rupert Murdoch, representing the Trilateral Commission and David Rockfeller, Frank Lowy, and Ross Garnaut. All three men are Zionists. The main funder of the Voice 'Yes" vote campaign was the Zionist Federation of Australia. This is who runs Australia today. They also run the US, City of London, BIS, and Israel.

I will never forget what happened to Gough Whitlam, when Malcolm Fraser took over unemployment went through the roof, that's when Australia was done for, forever, from Qld 🦘

Worst day in Australian history,

The Perfect Example of a No All, No nothing Academic being let loose on The Country. Being Let Loose on the Country. In 3 Years and 11 Months, Australia is Still Scarred from His Idiocy.

Her vocal fry is soooo annoying. Couldn't even finish the video.

Interesting that the most eloquent criticisms of the actions of the Governor-General that day came from a young Paul Keating.

snore

CIA engineered the dismissal as Whitlam did not want engagement in Vietnam and future US wars. He was also against the US secret Pine Gap facility

If he was a Victim how come he never ran for office again

interestingly enough this would never happen in any other Commonwealth Realm because Australia is the only one with an elected senate that can challenge the government if it does not have a majority of senators. The realms either have a fixed government majority in the senate e.g. Canada and Jamaica or they have no senate at all e.g. New Zealand. Australia is the only place where the governor-general can get away with such a bold move

Well done. AN unbiased factual account. In my day that would have impossible;

Whitlam had the right to do what he did - he was elected with policies. It is something which the Coalition never achieve. Their ambition is to exploit the status quo, so they make negative attacks to get elected. The acceptance of The Dismissal proves most Australians are bloody idiots.

Rupert Murdoch dictates public sentiment. Why was there dead silence from the Murdoch Media for a full week prior to the dismissal of the Whitlam Government ? When a Monarch sacks a democratically - elected government, that is not a minor issue. DO NOT BRAG ABOUT IT! - It was a bloody disgrace ! Whitlam was not elected without policies. His policies received the popular vote.

In Australia the leader of the country is a public servant.

Should have sacked half of the governments since then, and jailed the other half.

The appearance of Norman Gunston is the highlight of the day..

Wish they would sack Albo.

Notice how the reason the Co-alition was so anti-Whitlam is not explained? Gough was a Soviet fellow-traveller who sold thenation out to Pakistani money-launderers in addition to the Soviets. Gough was 100% pro-Allende in Chile, because he was ANOTHER Soviet asset who wanted to give Chilean Naval bases to THEM, directly threatening Oz. Great move Malcolm!

While there is no definitive proof that the United States directly orchestrated Whitlam’s dismissal, declassified documents and circumstantial evidence suggest that the CIA and the broader U.S. government had an interest in his removal. Here’s what is known: Why the U.S. Might Have Opposed Whitlam 1. Anti-American Policies: • Whitlam was critical of the U.S. military presence in Australia, particularly the Pine Gap intelligence facility, a critical joint U.S.-Australian operation for surveillance and communication during the Cold War. • He questioned Australia’s subservience to U.S. foreign policy, including its involvement in Vietnam. 2. Leaked CIA Connections: • Whitlam publicly revealed sensitive information about the CIA’s operations in Australia, including the role of former Australian intelligence officers as CIA assets. • The U.S. government feared Whitlam could jeopardize intelligence-sharing arrangements or even expel the U.S. from Pine Gap. 3. Cold War Concerns: • Whitlam’s government had a more independent and left-leaning foreign policy, recognizing China and supporting anti-colonial movements in the Pacific, which alarmed the U.S. during the Cold War. Evidence of U.S. Involvement 1. CIA Involvement Claims: • Declassified documents and testimonies suggest the CIA viewed Whitlam as a threat to U.S. interests. • Former CIA officer Victor Marchetti claimed that the CIA had encouraged opposition to Whitlam. 2. Role of Governor-General John Kerr: • Governor-General Sir John Kerr dismissed Whitlam using his constitutional powers, a highly controversial act. Kerr had close ties to both the CIA and U.S. officials. • Kerr consulted extensively with Sir Anthony Mason and others, but some allege he was also in touch with U.S. intelligence about Whitlam’s policies. 3. NSA Documents: • In 2020, declassified U.S. National Security Agency documents revealed U.S. anxiety over Whitlam’s actions and discussions about Pine Gap, further fueling speculation about U.S. involvement. Was the U.S. Directly Behind It? There is no concrete evidence proving direct U.S. involvement in orchestrating the dismissal. However: • The U.S. likely applied indirect pressure, including diplomatic and intelligence communications, to undermine Whitlam’s government. • The dismissal itself was executed domestically by Governor-General Kerr, not by foreign actors, but U.S. interests likely played a role in controlling Aus politics.

CIA coup by our “greatest” ally

The GG acted rightly. Whitlam could not pass the budget. He had bankrupted the country. He tried to borrow millions from a shady financier for which Whitlam's son took $1.5 million commission. Whitlam and his government were deeply unpopular, another official ground for dismissal, as the subsequent election showed.

Move over Gough, Albo's taking over as the worst Prime Minister in Australia's history!

BETTER THAN THE WAR CRIMINAL

That was DEMOCRACY in action! That stupid failed govt was removed by US, biggest majority vote for decades (notice the lefty fascist media don't tell U that FACT?)

I recall the time... It was beyond crazy...

Whitlam took australia from the 50's to the 70's he did more for Australia than all LNP governments have done cumulatively since 1975.

The Whitlam era recession triggered a significant recession which caused the loss of people’s assets. It also started the loss of traditional job security. The voters confirmed the dismissal by not supporting Whitlam.

Australia's Obama.

Sold us off to the UN

The Lima Agreement , maybe there was more to It ,,

Whitlam ALP was booted by Australian voters in a Landslide, once voters were given the opportunity. And btw I didn't like Fraser and I never voted for him.

This needs to be done again albo needs to go

Apparently your head of state had no idea that Whitlam was getting the boot. Believe that and you'll believe anything. Thank goodness you still have a hereditary German monarch as your head of state and the talented Parliamentarians of today. In particular the erudite lisper Albanese and the likes of Thorpe, Hanson and Lambey who really do show exemplary intellectual prowess.

CIA & MI6 overthrew the democratically elected Prime Minister - thats how the USA treats their most loyal lapdog that does whatever they are told

Correct🎉

Did the CIA have anything to do with this? Something about Whitlam refusing American military bases like Pine Gap. Anyone know anything about this?

It's not generally known, but Whitlam had the Speaker of the House write to the Queen asking her to dismiss the Fraser Government, cancel the forthcoming elections and re-appoint Whitlam the Prime Minister. The Queen replied that she could take no action - the matter was one for Australians to resolve, under the Australian Constitution.

Whatever you may think or say, the Australian people had their say at the election and gave the Coalition a resounding, landslide victory. Whitlam's posturing was meaningless.

Why hasn't this happened to Albo? Oh that's right biased governer general!
