GOUGH WHITLAM DISMISSAL: WAS IT RIGHT TO SACK GOUGH WHITLAM?

WITH DR. CHRISTOPHER REYNOLDS

COMMANDING THE NARRATIVE EPISODE 110


Steven Tripp is joined by Australian Historian, Political Philosopher and Author of ‘What a Capital Idea: Australia 1770-1901’, Dr. Christoper Reynolds.


Dr. Reynolds is back on the show to discuss the 50th Anniversary of the Gough Whitlam dismissal by then Governor-General Sir John Kerr. Dr. Reynolds details the dismissal and the people and forces involved at the time.


Dr. Reynolds then gives a comprehensive background on the roles of Prime Minister and Governor-General, explaining where and how the Governor-General was granted powers over the Government. Dr. Reynolds traces this back to Andrew Inglis Clark and the original style of Government that was intended for Australia and how it has been changed by politicians since.
