Australian Peers - Expectations Unfullfilled

Expectations Unfullfilled

In some cases a person was nominated for a peerage which was refused, such as Sir Isaac Isaacs.

In some cases there was a very strong expectation of being nominated for a peerage that failed to materialise, such as Sir Henry Bolte.

In some cases, the nominee died before the peerage was granted, such as Daniel Patrick O'Connell.

Famous quotes containing the word expectations:

    Often, when there is a conflict between parent and child, at its very hub is an expectation that the child should be acting differently. Sometimes these expectations run counter what is known about children’s growth. They stem from remembering oneself, but usually at a slightly older age.
    Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
