  • The History of the Queensland Parliament, 1957–1989
    9. The slide towards uncertainty, 1969–1972 The Parliament resumed after a break of seven and a half months—a relatively long intermission but by no means unusual in those days. When an election was due in the new year (from March to June), it was common practice for the Parliament to adjourn in late November or early December (before Christmas) and to not reconvene for another six to eight months. This was the pattern followed throughout the 1940s to the mid-1950s and again from 1962 to 1972. The thirty-ninth Parliament would run from 5 August 1969 to 10 December 1971 (202 sitting days in the three-year term or 67 days a year) and not meet again before the May 1972 election. It was the last Parliament to meet with 78 members and, for the first time since winning government, the Coalition governed with a reduced majority. Under Nicklin, the Coalition’s majority had risen from nine in 1957 to 10 in 1960, to 14 in 1963 and 16 in 1966, but fell back to just 12 after the 1969 election—Bjelke-Petersen’s first electoral test as leader. With the benefit of hindsight, it is clear the 1969–72 Parliament was to become Labor’s high-water mark in its period in opposition, when for a few years it posed a credible challenge to the government. It was also a period when the Premier was at his most vulnerable politically—a condition deeply troubling to his own party colleagues, who would eventually be incited to rebel against his leadership.

Years later, he ex- hibited his ability to audiences world wide as one third of the legendary Emerson, Lake and Palmer. With the breakup of E.L.P., Palmer has expanded in new directions with the forma- tion of his own band, P.M. 12 BILL GOODWIN Bill Goodwin has played with a variety of musicians over the years, including Art Pepper, George Shearing, Mose Allison and currently with Phil Woods. Goodwin discusses the styles and demands of the various musicians he worked with. And though Goodwin is a renowned sideman, he is determined to branch out with some solo projects of his own. 22 DEREK PELLICCI Derek Pellicci of the successful Little River Band, speaks candidly about his responsibilities with the band versus his other love, session work. Pellicci is happiest creating under studio session pressure. The drummer also discusses the impor- tance of sound in regards to the drums and the care that must go into achieving the right sound. 28 THE GREAT JAZZ DRUMMERS: SHOP HOPPIN' AT DRUMS PART I 16 UNLIMITED 30 MD'S SECOND ANNUAL READERS POLL RESULTS 24 COLUMNS: EDITOR'S OVERVIEW 2 DRIVER'S SEAT Controlling the Band READER'S PLATFORM 5 by Mel Lewis 42 ASK A PRO 6 SHOP TALK Different Cymbals for Different Drummers IT'S QUESTIONABLE 8 by Bob Saydlowski, Jr 46 ROCK PERSPECTIVES SLIGHTLY OFFBEAT Odd Rock, Part 2 Pioneering Progressive Percussion by David Garibaldi 32 by Cheech Iero 50 JAZZ DRUMMER'S WORKSHOP DRUM

  • The History of the Queensland Parliament, 1957–1989
    14 . The demise of the Coalition and the Nationals governing alone, 1981–1983 In 1980, backroom plans had been already entertained for a stand-alone National Party government supplemented by a few Liberal ‘ministerialists’— opportunists who would cross over and side with whatever the next ministry turned out to be in order to remain part of the next government. Historically, ‘ministerialists’ were typically senior parliamentarians who, forgoing party loyalties, decided to collaborate as individuals in the formulation of a new government. After the 1980 election, however, any such musing was put on hold as the two conservative parties lapsed back into coalition. This time, the Nationals clearly imposed their dominance, taking the prime portfolios and consigning the ‘leftovers’ to the Liberals. Labor began to refer to the junior partners as ‘Dr Edwards and his shattered Liberal team’—the losers who were ‘now completely the captive of the National Party’ (QPD 1981:vol. 283, p. 7). Despite his vitriolic attacks against the Premier and the National-led government, Llew Edwards retained his position as Deputy Premier and Treasurer—positions he would keep until he was deposed by Terry White on the eve of the Coalition collapse in August 1983, although there was an unsuccessful attempt by dissident Liberals to remove Edwards in November 1981. When the Premier learned about the dissident Liberal plan to topple Edwards, with Angus Innes taking the lead, he declared Innes an ‘anti-coalitionist’ and someone with whom he would not work. Instead, Bjelke-Petersen began hatching plans to form a minority government with whomsoever among the Liberals who would give him support; and then to govern alone until mid-1982.
