Australian Party (1960s)
Formed in 1966; it released the policy statement: "In domestic matters we want the word "Commonwealth" to have true meaning. Land would be available to all who need it and at reasonable prices. Land profiteering would be a criminal offence. In foreign policy we advocate recognition of a New Asia and a world which is utterly different from that of even ten years ago. Immediate action to improve greatly the transport system will necessitate a major road plan, ruthless modernisation of the railways."

“Each Australian is a Ulysses.”
—Christina Stead (1902–1983)
“I recommend to you, in my last, an innocent piece of art: that of flattering people behind their backs, in presence of those who, to make their own court, much more than for your sake, will not fail to repeat, and even amplify, the praise to the party concerned. This is of all flattery the most pleasing, and consequently the most effectual.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
