To date the longest-serving federal leader of the <a href="/wiki/Australian_Labor_Party" title="Australian Labor Party">Australian Labor Party</a> (ALP), he was notable for being the head of a <a href="/wiki/Reformist" class="mw-redirect" title="Reformist">reformist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Socially_progressive" class="mw-redirect" title="Socially progressive">socially progressive</a> government that ended with his controversial dismissal by the then-<a href="/wiki/Governor-general_of_Australia" class="mw-redirect" title="Governor-general of Australia">governor-general of Australia</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sir_John_Kerr" class="mw-redirect" title="Sir John Kerr">Sir John Kerr</a>, at the climax of the <a href="/wiki/1975_Australian_constitutional_crisis" title="1975 Australian constitutional crisis">1975 constitutional crisis</a>. Whitlam remains the only Australian prime minister to have been removed from office by a governor-general. Whitlam was an <a href="/wiki/Navigator#In_aviation" title="Navigator">air navigator</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Australian_Air_Force" title="Royal Australian Air Force">Royal Australian Air Force</a> for four years <a href="/wiki/Military_history_of_Australia_during_World_War_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Military history of Australia during World War II">during World War II</a>, and worked as a <a href="/wiki/Barrister" title="Barrister">barrister</a> following the war. He was first elected to the <a href="/wiki/Australian_House_of_Representatives" title="Australian House of Representatives">Australian House of Representatives</a> in 1952, becoming a <a href="/wiki/Member_of_Parliament_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Member of Parliament (Australia)">member of parliament</a> (MP) for the <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Werriwa" title="Division of Werriwa">division of Werriwa</a>. Whitlam became deputy leader of the Labor Party in 1960, and in 1967, after the retirement of <a href="/wiki/Arthur_Calwell" title="Arthur Calwell">Arthur Calwell</a>, was elected leader of the party and became the <a href="/wiki/Leader_of_the_Opposition_(Australia)" title="Leader of the Opposition (Australia)">Leader of the Opposition</a>. After narrowly losing the <a href="/wiki/1969_Australian_federal_election" title="1969 Australian federal election">1969 federal election</a> to <a href="/wiki/John_Gorton" title="John Gorton">John Gorton</a>, Whitlam <a href="/wiki/It%27s_Time_(Australian_campaign)" title="It's Time (Australian campaign)">led Labor</a> to victory at the <a href="/wiki/1972_Australian_federal_election" title="1972 Australian federal election">1972 election</a>, after 23 years of <a href="/wiki/Coalition_(Australia)" title="Coalition (Australia)">Coalition</a> government. In its first term, the <a href="/wiki/Whitlam_government" title="Whitlam government">Whitlam government</a> introduced numerous socially progressive and reformist policies and initiatives, including the termination of <a href="/wiki/Conscription_in_Australia" title="Conscription in Australia">military conscription</a> and the end of <a href="/wiki/Australian_involvement_in_the_Vietnam_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Australian involvement in the Vietnam War">Australian involvement in the Vietnam War</a>, institution of <a href="/wiki/Universal_health_care" title="Universal health care">universal health care</a> and free <a href="/wiki/University_education" class="mw-redirect" title="University education">university education</a>, and the implementation of <a href="/wiki/Legal_aid" title="Legal aid">legal aid</a> programmes. With the opposition-controlled <a href="/wiki/Australian_Senate" title="Australian Senate">Australian Senate</a> delaying passage of bills, Whitlam called a snap <a href="/wiki/Double_dissolution" title="Double dissolution">double dissolution</a> election in <a href="/wiki/1974_Australian_federal_election" title="1974 Australian federal election">May 1974</a> in which he won a slightly reduced majority in the House of Representatives, and picked up three Senate seats to hold equal Senate numbers to the opposition. The Whitlam government then instituted the first and only <a href="/wiki/Joint_Sitting_of_the_Australian_Parliament_of_1974" title="Joint Sitting of the Australian Parliament of 1974">joint sitting</a> enabled under section 57 of the <a href="/wiki/Australian_constitution" class="mw-redirect" title="Australian constitution">Australian constitution</a> as part of the double dissolution process. His government's second term was dominated by a declining economy suffering from the <a href="/wiki/1973_oil_crisis" title="1973 oil crisis">1973 oil crisis</a> and the <a href="/wiki/1973%E2%80%931975_recession" title="1973–1975 recession">1970s global recession</a>, as well as a political scandal known as the <a href="/wiki/Loans_affair" title="Loans affair">Loans affair</a>, which led to the removal of two government ministers. The opposition continued to obstruct Whitlam's agenda in the Senate. In late 1975, the opposition senators refused to allow a vote on the government's <a href="/wiki/Appropriation_bill" title="Appropriation bill">appropriation bills</a>, returning them to the House of Representatives with a demand that the government go to an election. Whitlam argued that his government, which held a clear majority in the House of Representatives, was being held to ransom by the Senate. The crisis ended in mid-November, when governor-general Sir John Kerr dismissed him from office and commissioned the opposition leader, <a href="/wiki/Malcolm_Fraser" title="Malcolm Fraser">Malcolm Fraser</a>, as caretaker prime minister. Labor lost the <a href="/wiki/1975_Australian_federal_election" title="1975 Australian federal election">subsequent election</a> by a landslide. Whitlam stepped down as leader of the party after losing again at the <a href="/wiki/1977_Australian_federal_election" title="1977 Australian federal election">1977 election</a>, and retired from parliament the following year. Upon the election of the <a href="/wiki/Hawke_government" title="Hawke government">Hawke government</a> in 1983, he was appointed as Ambassador to <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a>, a position he filled with distinction, and was elected a member of the UNESCO Executive Board. He remained active into his nineties. The propriety and circumstances of his dismissal and the legacy of his government have been frequently debated in the decades since he left office.

V. Evatt">Bert Evatt</a>, whom Whitlam greatly admired. In 1954, the ALP seemed likely to return to power. The Prime Minister, <a href="/wiki/Robert_Menzies" title="Robert Menzies">Robert Menzies</a>, adroitly used the <a href="/wiki/Petrov_Affair" title="Petrov Affair">defection of a Soviet official</a> to his advantage, and <a href="/wiki/Coalition_(Australia)" title="Coalition (Australia)">his coalition</a> of the Liberal and <a href="/wiki/National_Party_of_Australia" title="National Party of Australia">Country</a> parties was returned in the <a href="/wiki/1954_Australian_federal_election" title="1954 Australian federal election">1954 election</a> with a seven-seat majority. After the election, Evatt attempted to purge the party of <a href="/wiki/Industrial_Groups" title="Industrial Groups">industrial groupers</a>, who had long dissented from party policy, and who were predominantly Catholic and anti-communist. The ensuing division in the ALP, which came to be known as "<a href="/wiki/Australian_Labor_Party_split_of_1955" title="Australian Labor Party split of 1955">The Split</a>", sparked the birth of the <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Labor_Party_(Australia,_1955)" title="Democratic Labor Party (Australia, 1955)">Democratic Labor Party</a> (DLP). The conflict helped to keep Labor out of power for a generation, since DLP supporters chose the Liberal Party in <a href="/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting" title="Instant-runoff voting">preferential voting</a>. Whitlam supported Evatt throughout this period.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008332–333-35">[34]</a> In 1955, a redistribution divided Whitlam's electorate of Werriwa in two, with his Cronulla home located in the new electorate of <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Hughes" title="Division of Hughes">Hughes</a>. Although Whitlam would have received ALP support in either division, he chose to continue standing for Werriwa and moved from Cronulla to <a href="/wiki/Cabramatta,_New_South_Wales" title="Cabramatta, New South Wales">Cabramatta</a>. This meant even longer journeys for his older children to attend school, since neither electorate had a high school at the time; they attended school in Sydney.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008177–179-36">[35]</a> Whitlam was appointed to the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Constitutional Review in 1956. Biographer <a href="/wiki/Jenny_Hocking" title="Jenny Hocking">Jenny Hocking</a> calls his service on the committee, which included members from all parties in both chambers of Parliament, one of the "great influences in his political development".<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008181-37">[36]</a> According to Hocking, service on the committee caused Whitlam to focus not on internal conflicts consuming the ALP, but on Labor goals which were possible and worthwhile in the constitutional framework. Many Labor goals, such as nationalisation, ran contrary to the Constitution. Whitlam came to believe the Constitution – and especially Section 96 (which allowed the federal government to make grants to the states) – could be used to advance a worthwhile Labor programme.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008181–186-38">[37]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Deputy_Leader,_1960–1967">Deputy Leader, 1960–1967</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Gough_Whitlam&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Deputy Leader, 1960–1967">edit</a>]</div> By the late 1950s Whitlam was seen as a leadership contender once the existing Labor leaders exited the scene. Most of the party's major figures, including Evatt, Deputy Leader <a href="/wiki/Arthur_Calwell" title="Arthur Calwell">Arthur Calwell</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eddie_Ward" title="Eddie Ward">Eddie Ward</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Reg_Pollard_(politician)" title="Reg Pollard (politician)">Reg Pollard</a>, were in their sixties, twenty years older than Whitlam.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008333-39">[38]</a> In 1960, after losing three elections, Evatt resigned and was replaced by Calwell, with Whitlam defeating Ward for deputy leader.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008333–334-40">[39]</a> Calwell came within a handful of votes of winning the cliffhanger <a href="/wiki/1961_Australian_federal_election" title="1961 Australian federal election">1961 election</a>. He had not wanted Whitlam as deputy leader, and believed Labor would have won if Ward had been in the position.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008218–219-41">[40]</a> Soon after the 1961 election, events began to turn against Labor. When President <a href="/wiki/Sukarno" title="Sukarno">Sukarno</a> of Indonesia announced that he intended to take over <a href="/wiki/West_New_Guinea" class="mw-redirect" title="West New Guinea">West New Guinea</a> as the colonial Dutch departed, Calwell responded by declaring that Indonesia must be stopped by force. Calwell's statement was called "crazy and irresponsible" by Prime Minister Menzies, and the incident reduced public support for the ALP.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008219–220-42">[41]</a> At that time, the Federal Conference of the Labor Party, which dictated policy to parliamentary members, consisted of six members from each state, but not Calwell or Whitlam. In early 1963 a special conference met in a Canberra hotel to determine Labor policy regarding a proposed US base in northern Australia; Calwell and Whitlam were photographed by <a href="/wiki/The_Daily_Telegraph_(Sydney)" title="The Daily Telegraph (Sydney)">The Daily Telegraph</a> peering in through the doors, waiting for the verdict. In an accompanying story, <a href="/wiki/Alan_Reid_(journalist)" title="Alan Reid (journalist)">Alan Reid</a> of the Telegraph wrote that Labor was ruled by "36 <a href="/wiki/Faceless_men" title="Faceless men">faceless men</a>". The Liberals seized on it, issuing a leaflet called "Mr Calwell and the Faceless Men" which accused Calwell and Whitlam of taking direction from "36 unknown men, not elected to Parliament nor responsible to the people".<a href="#cite_note-43">[42]</a> Menzies manipulated the Opposition on issues that bitterly divided it, such as direct aid to the states for private schools, and the proposed base. He called an <a href="/wiki/1963_Australian_federal_election" title="1963 Australian federal election">early election</a> for November 1963, standing in support of those two issues. The Prime Minister performed better than Calwell on television and received an unexpected boost after the assassination of US President <a href="/wiki/John_F._Kennedy" title="John F. Kennedy">John F. Kennedy</a>. As a result, the Coalition easily defeated Labor on a 10-seat swing. Whitlam had hoped Calwell would step down after 1963, but he remained, reasoning that Evatt had been given three opportunities to win, and that he should be allowed a third try.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008334-44">[43]</a> Calwell dismissed proposals that the ALP leader and deputy leader should be entitled to membership of the party's conference (or on its governing 12-person Federal Executive, which had two representatives from each state), and instead ran successfully for one of the conference's Victoria seats.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008232–233-45">[44]</a> Labor did badly in a 1964 by-election in the Tasmanian <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Denison" title="Division of Denison">electorate of Denison</a>, and lost seats in the 1964 half-Senate election. The party was also defeated in the state elections in the most populous state, New South Wales, surrendering control of the state government for the first time since 1941.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008235–236-46">[45]</a> Whitlam's relationship with Calwell, never good, deteriorated further after publication of a 1965 article in <a href="/wiki/The_Australian" title="The Australian">The Australian</a> reporting off-the-record comments Whitlam had made that his leader was "too old and weak" to win office, and that the party might be gravely damaged by an "old-fashioned" 70-year-old Calwell seeking his first term as prime minister.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008240–241-47">[46]</a> Later that year, at Whitlam's and <a href="/wiki/Don_Dunstan" title="Don Dunstan">Don Dunstan</a>'s urging, and over Calwell's objection, the biennial party conference made major changes to the party's platform: deleting support for the <a href="/wiki/White_Australia_policy" title="White Australia policy">White Australia policy</a> and making the ALP's leader and deputy leader ex officio members of the conference and executive, along with the party's leader and deputy leader in the Senate. As Whitlam considered the Senate unrepresentative, he opposed the admission of its ALP leaders to the party's governing bodies.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008244–248-48">[47]</a> Menzies retired in January 1966, and was succeeded as prime minister by the new Liberal Party leader, <a href="/wiki/Harold_Holt" title="Harold Holt">Harold Holt</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008248-49">[48]</a> After years of politics being dominated by the elderly Menzies and Calwell, the younger Holt was seen as a breath of fresh air, and attracted public interest and support in the run-up to the <a href="/wiki/1966_Australian_federal_election" title="1966 Australian federal election">November election</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008248-49">[48]</a> In early 1966, the 36-member conference, with Calwell's assent, banned any ALP parliamentarian from supporting federal assistance to the states for spending on both government and private schools, commonly called "state aid". Whitlam broke with the party on the issue, and was charged with gross disloyalty by the executive, an offence which carried the penalty of expulsion from the party. Before the matter could be heard, Whitlam left for <a href="/wiki/Queensland" title="Queensland">Queensland</a>, where he campaigned intensively for the ALP candidate <a href="/wiki/Rex_Patterson" title="Rex Patterson">Rex Patterson</a> in the <a href="/wiki/1966_Dawson_by-election" title="1966 Dawson by-election">Dawson by-election</a>. The ALP won, dealing the government its first by-election defeat since 1952. Whitlam survived the expulsion vote by a margin of only two, gaining both Queensland votes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008250–256-50">[49]</a> At the end of April, Whitlam <a href="/wiki/1966_Australian_Labor_Party_leadership_spill" title="1966 Australian Labor Party leadership spill">challenged</a> Calwell for the leadership; though Calwell received two-thirds of the vote, he announced that if the party lost the upcoming election, he would not stand again for the leadership.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008257–258-51">[50]</a> Holt called an election for November 1966, in which Australia's involvement in the <a href="/wiki/Vietnam_War" title="Vietnam War">Vietnam War</a> was a major issue. Calwell called for an "immediate and unconditional withdrawal" of Australian troops from Vietnam. Whitlam, however, said this would deprive Australia of any voice in a settlement, and that regular troops, rather than conscripts, should remain under some circumstances.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEOakesSolomon197359-52">[51]</a> Calwell considered Whitlam's remark disastrous, disputing the party line just five days before the election. The ALP suffered a crushing defeat; the party was reduced to 41 seats in the House of Representatives. Shortly after the election, Whitlam faced another expulsion vote for his stance on Vietnam, and survived.<a href="#cite_note-53">[52]</a> True to his word, Calwell resigned two months after the election. At the <a href="/wiki/Australian_Labor_Party_Caucus" title="Australian Labor Party Caucus">caucus</a> meeting on 8 February 1967, Whitlam was elected party leader, defeating leading left-wing candidate <a href="/wiki/Jim_Cairns" title="Jim Cairns">Jim Cairns</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008271-54">[53]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Leader_of_the_Opposition,_1967–1972">Leader of the Opposition, 1967–1972</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Gough_Whitlam&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Leader of the Opposition, 1967–1972">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Reforming_the_ALP">Reforming the ALP</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Gough_Whitlam&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Reforming the ALP">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg/170px-Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="231" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg/255px-Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg/340px-Gough_and_Margaret_Whitlam_-_Holt%27s_memorial_service.jpg 2x" data-file-width="900" data-file-height="1225" /></a><figcaption>Whitlam and his wife Margaret entering the memorial service for Harold Holt in December 1967</figcaption></figure> Whitlam believed the Labor Party had little chance of being elected unless it could expand its appeal from the traditional working-class base to include the suburban middle class.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly19953-55">[54]</a> He sought to shift control of the ALP from union officials to the parliamentary party, and hoped even rank-and-file party members could be given a voice in the conference.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg200995-56">[55]</a> In 1968, controversy erupted within the party when the executive refused to seat new Tasmanian delegate <a href="/wiki/Brian_Harradine" title="Brian Harradine">Brian Harradine</a>, a Whitlam supporter who was considered a right-wing extremist.<a href="#cite_note-57">[56]</a> Whitlam resigned the leadership, demanding a vote of confidence from caucus.

Despite the vote, the executive refused to seat Harradine.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008337–339-58">[57]</a> With the ALP's governing bodies unwilling to reform themselves, Whitlam worked to build support for change among ordinary party members.

It called for the establishment of an Australian Schools Commission to consider the proper level of state aid for schools and universities, recognition of Aboriginal land claims, and expanded party policy on <a href="/wiki/Universal_health_care" title="Universal health care">universal health care</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008321–325-60">[59]</a> The conference also called for increased federal involvement in urban planning, and formed the basis of "The Program" of modern socialism which Whitlam and the ALP presented to voters in 1972.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHocking2008325–326-61">[60]</a> Since 1918, Labor had called for the abolition of the existing Australian Constitution, and the vesting of all political power in Parliament, a plan which would turn the states into powerless geographic regions. Beginning in 1965, Whitlam sought to change this goal. He finally succeeded at the 1971 ALP Conference in <a href="/wiki/Launceston,_Tasmania" title="Launceston, Tasmania">Launceston, Tasmania</a>, which called for Parliament to receive "such plenary powers as are necessary and desirable" to achieve the ALP's goals in domestic and international affairs.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESawer19773-62">[61]</a> Labor also pledged to abolish the Senate; this goal was not erased from the party platform until 1979, after Whitlam had stepped down as leader.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly199512-63">[62]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Leader_of_the_Opposition">Leader of the Opposition</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Gough_Whitlam&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Leader of the Opposition">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg/220px-Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="141" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg/330px-Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/31/Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg/440px-Gough_Whitlam_-_Leader_of_the_Opposition.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1290" data-file-height="824" /></a><figcaption>Whitlam in August 1971</figcaption></figure> Soon after taking the leadership, Whitlam reorganised the ALP caucus, assigning portfolios and turning the Labor frontbench into a <a href="/wiki/Shadow_cabinet" title="Shadow cabinet">shadow cabinet</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELloyd2008337-64">[63]</a> While the Liberal-Country Coalition had a huge majority in the House of Representatives, Whitlam energised the party by campaigning intensively to win two by-elections in 1967: first in <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Corio" title="Division of Corio">Corio</a> in Victoria, and later that year in <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Capricornia" title="Division of Capricornia">Capricornia</a> in Queensland.

With a half-Senate election due by mid-year, Whitlam looked for ways to shore up support in that body. Queensland senator and former DLP leader <a href="/wiki/Vince_Gair" title="Vince Gair">Vince Gair</a> signalled his willingness to leave the Senate for a diplomatic post. Gair's term would not expire until the following half-Senate election or upon a double dissolution election. With five Queensland seats at stake in the half-Senate election, the ALP was expected to win only two, but if six (including Gair's) were at stake, the party would be likely to win a third. Possible control of the Senate was therefore at stake; Whitlam agreed to Gair's request and had Governor-General Sir Paul Hasluck appoint him ambassador to Ireland. Word leaked of Gair's pending resignation, and Whitlam's opponents attempted to counteract his manoeuvre. On what became known as the "Night of the Long Prawns", Country Party members secreted Gair at a small party in a legislative office as the ALP searched for him to secure his written resignation. As Gair enjoyed beer and prawns, Bjelke-Petersen advised the Queensland governor, <a href="/wiki/Colin_Hannah" title="Colin Hannah">Colin Hannah</a>, to issue writs for only the usual five vacancies, since Gair's seat was not yet vacant, effectively countering Whitlam's plan.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976100–107-128">[127]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Second_term">Second term</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Gough_Whitlam&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Second term">edit</a>]</div> By mid-1974, Australia was in an economic slump, suffering from the <a href="/wiki/1973_oil_crisis" title="1973 oil crisis">1973 oil crisis</a> and <a href="/wiki/1973%E2%80%931975_recession" title="1973–1975 recession">1973–1975 recession</a>. The 1973 oil crisis had caused prices to spike and, according to government figures, inflation topped 13 per cent for over a year between 1973 and 1974.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976118–119-129">[128]</a> Part of the inflation was due to Whitlam's desire to increase wages and conditions of the Commonwealth Public Service as a pacesetter for the private sector.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976160-130">[129]</a> The Whitlam government had cut tariffs by 25 per cent in 1973; 1974 saw an increase in imports of 30 per cent and a $1.5 billion increase in the <a href="/wiki/Trade_deficit" class="mw-redirect" title="Trade deficit">trade deficit</a>.

Whitlam gave little help to his embattled deputy.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976123–124-131">[130]</a> Despite these economic indicators, the Budget presented in August 1974 saw large increases in spending, especially in education.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976183-132">[131]</a> Treasury officials had advised a series of tax and fee increases, ranging from excise taxes to the cost of posting a letter; their advice was mostly rejected by Cabinet.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009308-133">[132]</a> The Budget was unsuccessful in dealing with the inflation and unemployment, and Whitlam introduced large tax cuts in November. He also announced additional spending to help the private sector.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976183-132">[131]</a> Beginning in October 1974, the Whitlam government sought overseas loans to finance its development plans, with the newly enriched oil nations a likely target. Whitlam attempted to secure financing before informing the <a href="/wiki/Loan_Council" title="Loan Council">Loan Council</a> which included state officials hostile to Whitlam. His government empowered Pakistani financier <a href="/wiki/Tirath_Khemlani" class="mw-redirect" title="Tirath Khemlani">Tirath Khemlani</a> as an intermediary in the hope of securing US$4 billion in loans. While the <a href="/wiki/Loans_Affair" class="mw-redirect" title="Loans Affair">Loans Affair</a> did not result in a loan,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBrown2002128–129-134">[133]</a> according to author and Whitlam speechwriter Graham Freudenberg, "The only cost involved was the cost to the reputation of the Government. That cost was to be immense – it was government itself."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009348-135">[134]</a> Whitlam appointed Senator Murphy to the High Court, even though Murphy's Senate seat would not be up for election if a half-Senate election were held. Labor then held three of the five short-term New South Wales Senate seats. Under proportional representation, Labor could hold its three short-term seats in the next half-Senate election but, if Murphy's seat were also contested, Labor was unlikely to win four out of six. Thus, a Murphy appointment meant the almost certain loss of a seat in the closely divided Senate at the next election.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976206-136">[135]</a> Whitlam appointed Murphy anyway. By convention, senators appointed by the state legislature to fill <a href="/wiki/Casual_vacancies_in_the_Australian_Parliament" title="Casual vacancies in the Australian Parliament">casual vacancies</a> were from the same political party as the former senator. The New South Wales premier, <a href="/wiki/Tom_Lewis_(Australian_politician)" title="Tom Lewis (Australian politician)">Tom Lewis</a>, felt that this convention applied only to vacancies caused by deaths or ill-health, and arranged for the legislature to elect <a href="/wiki/Cleaver_Bunton" title="Cleaver Bunton">Cleaver Bunton</a>, former mayor of <a href="/wiki/Albury" title="Albury">Albury</a> and an independent.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976206–208-137">[136]</a> By March 1975, many Liberal parliamentarians felt Snedden was doing an inadequate job as leader of the Opposition, and that Whitlam was dominating him in the House of Representatives.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009315-138">[137]</a> <a href="/wiki/Malcolm_Fraser" title="Malcolm Fraser">Malcolm Fraser</a> challenged Snedden for the leadership, and defeated him on 21 March.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009317-139">[138]</a> Soon after Fraser's accession, controversy arose over the Whitlam government's actions in trying to restart peace talks in Vietnam. As the North prepared to end the civil war, Whitlam sent cables to both Vietnamese governments, telling Parliament both cables were substantially the same.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009338–340-140">[139]</a> The Opposition contended he had misled Parliament, and a motion to censure Whitlam was defeated along party lines.<a href="#cite_note-The_Age-1975-141">[140]</a> The Opposition also attacked Whitlam for not allowing enough South Vietnamese refugees into Australia, with Fraser calling for the entry of 50,000. Freudenberg alleges that 1,026 Vietnamese refugees entered Australia in the final eight months of the Whitlam government, and only 399 in 1976 under Fraser.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009342-142">[141]</a> However, by 1977, Australia had accepted more than five thousand refugees.<a href="#cite_note-The_Dispatch-1977-143">[142]</a> As the political situation deteriorated, Whitlam and his government continued to enact legislation: The <a href="/wiki/Family_Law_Act_1975" title="Family Law Act 1975">Family Law Act 1975</a> provided for no-fault divorce while the <a href="/wiki/Racial_Discrimination_Act_1975" title="Racial Discrimination Act 1975">Racial Discrimination Act 1975</a> caused Australia to ratify the <a href="/wiki/International_Convention_on_the_Elimination_of_All_Forms_of_Racial_Discrimination" title="International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination">International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination</a> that Australia had signed under Holt, but which had never been ratified.

With Field on leave (his Senate appointment having been challenged), the Coalition had an effective majority of 30–29 in the Senate. The Coalition believed that if Whitlam could not deliver supply, and would not <a href="/wiki/Advice_(constitutional)" class="mw-redirect" title="Advice (constitutional)">advise</a> new elections, Kerr would have to dismiss him.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1983267-150">[149]</a> Supply would run out on 30 November.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009389-151">[150]</a> The stakes were raised on 10 October, when the High Court declared valid the Act granting the territories two senators each. In a half-Senate election, most successful candidates would not take their places until 1 July 1976, but the territories' senators, and those filling Field's and Bunton's seats, would assume their seats immediately. This gave Labor an outside chance of controlling the Senate, at least until 1 July 1976.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1995109–110-152">[151]</a> On 14 October, Labor minister <a href="/wiki/Rex_Connor" title="Rex Connor">Rex Connor</a>, mastermind of the <a href="/wiki/Loans_affair" title="Loans affair">loans scheme</a>, was forced to resign when Khemlani released documents showing that Connor had made misleading statements. The continuing scandal bolstered the Coalition in their stance that they would not concede supply.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1995112-153">[152]</a> Whitlam, convinced that he would win the battle, was glad of the distraction from the Loans Affair, and believed he would "smash" not only the Senate, but Fraser's leadership.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976377-154">[153]</a> Whitlam told the House of Representatives on 21 October, <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}</style><blockquote class="templatequote">Let me place my government's position clearly on the record.

The Coalition senators remained united, though several became increasingly concerned about the tactic of blocking supply.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976376-156">[155]</a> As the crisis dragged into November, Whitlam attempted to make arrangements for public servants and suppliers to be able to cash cheques at banks. These transactions would be temporary loans which the government would repay once supply was restored.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFreudenberg2009390-157">[156]</a> This plan to prolong government without supply was presented to Kerr unsigned on 6 November, under the title "Draft Joint Opinion" (ostensibly of solicitor-general <a href="/wiki/Maurice_Byers" title="Maurice Byers">Maurice Byers</a> and attorney-general <a href="/wiki/Kep_Enderby" title="Kep Enderby">Kep Enderby</a>). It proposed that public employees, including members of the armed forces and police, "could assign arrears of pay by way of mortgage". The government's refusal to formalise this and other "advice" was a factor justifying Kerr's resort to advice from elsewhere.<a href="#cite_note-158">[157]</a> Kerr was following the crisis closely. At a luncheon with Whitlam and several of his ministers on 30 October, Kerr suggested a compromise: if Fraser conceded supply, Whitlam would agree not to call the half-Senate election until May or June 1976, or alternatively would agree not to call the Senate into session until after 1 July. Whitlam rejected the idea, seeking to end the Senate's right to deny supply.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976382–383-159">[158]</a> On 3 November, after a meeting with Kerr, Fraser proposed that if the government agreed to hold a House of Representatives election at the same time as the half-Senate election, the Coalition would concede supply. Whitlam rejected this offer, stating that he had no intention of advising a House election for at least a year.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976386–387-160">[159]</a> With the crisis unresolved, Kerr decided to dismiss Whitlam as prime minister.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1995215-161">[160]</a> Fearing that Whitlam would go to <a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_II" title="Elizabeth II">the Queen</a> and potentially have him removed, the Governor-General gave Whitlam no prior hint.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1995217-162">[161]</a> Against Whitlam's advice, he conferred with High Court Chief Justice Sir Garfield Barwick, who agreed that he had the power to dismiss Whitlam.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1995225-163">[162]</a> A meeting among the party leaders, including Whitlam and Fraser, to resolve the crisis on the morning of 11 November came to nothing.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReid1976404–405-164">[163]</a> Kerr and Whitlam met at the Governor-General's office that afternoon at 1:00 pm.

Immediately after his meeting with Whitlam, Kerr commissioned Fraser as caretaker Prime Minister, on the assurance he could obtain supply and would then advise Kerr to dissolve both houses for election.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1983295-168">[167]</a> In the confusion, Whitlam and his advisers did not immediately tell any Senate members of the dismissal, with the result that when the Senate convened at 2:00 pm, the appropriation bills were rapidly passed, with the ALP senators assuming the Opposition had given in.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKelly1983295–297-169">[168]</a> The bills were soon sent to Kerr to receive <a href="/wiki/Royal_Assent" class="mw-redirect" title="Royal Assent">Royal Assent</a>.

In that time Kerr rang Justice Anthony Mason to ask for advice.

Whitlam's campaign team disbelieved the results at first, but additional polling returns clearly showed that the electorate had turned against Labor. The Coalition attacked Labor for economic conditions, and released television commercials with the title "The Three Dark Years" showing images from Whitlam government scandals. The ALP campaign concentrated on the issue of Whitlam's dismissal and did not address the economy until its final days.
