Описание

Today marks the 50th anniversary of The Dismissal - a defining moment in Australian political history. For the first and only time in Australian history, on November 11, 1975 the governor general dismissed a prime minister and his government. Richard Whitington was a staffer with Gough Whitlam from 1974 to 1977. He spent many hours in planes and cars with the former prime minister.
