  • A 'Common-Sense Revolution'? the Transformation of the Melbourne City
    A ‘COMMON-SENSE REVOLUTION’? THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE MELBOURNE CITY COUNCIL, 1992−9 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April, 2015 Angela G. Munro Faculty of Business, Government and Law Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis University of Canberra ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is the culmination of almost fifty years’ interest professionally and as a citizen in local government. Like many Australians, I suspect, I had barely noticed it until I lived in England where I realised what unique attributes it offered, despite the different constitutional arrangements of which it was part. The research question of how the disempowerment and de-democratisation of the Melbourne City Council from 1992−9 was possible was a question with which I had wrestled, in practice, as a citizen during those years. My academic interest was piqued by the Mayor of Stockholm to whom I spoke on November 18, 1993, the day on which the Melbourne City Council was sacked. ‘That couldn’t happen here’, he said. I have found the project a herculean labour, since I recognised the need to go back to 1842 to track the institutional genealogy of the City Council’s development in the pre- history period to 1992 rather than a forensic examination of the seven year study period. I have been exceptionally fortunate to have been supervised by John Halligan, Professor of Public Administration at University of Canberra. An international authority in the field, Professor Halligan has published extensively on Australian systems of government including the capital cities and the Melbourne City Council in particular.

    1. Gina Rinehart $14.02billion from Resources Chairman – Hancock Prospecting Residence: Perth Wealth last year: $20.01b Rank last year: 1 A plunging iron ore price has made a big dent in Gina Rinehart’s wealth. But so vast are her mining assets that Rinehart, chairman of Hancock Prospecting, maintains her position as Australia’s richest person in 2015. Work is continuing on her $10billion Roy Hill project in Western Australia, although it has been hit by doubts over its short-term viability given falling commodity prices and safety issues. Rinehart is pressing ahead and expects the first shipment late in 2015. Most of her wealth comes from huge royalty cheques from Rio Tinto, which mines vast swaths of tenements pegged by Rinehart’s late father, Lang Hancock, in the 1950s and 1960s. Rinehart's wealth has been subject to a long running family dispute with a court ruling in May that eldest daughter Bianca should become head of the $5b family trust. 2. Anthony Pratt & Family $10.76billion from manufacturing and investment Executive Chairman – Visy Residence: Melbourne Wealth last year: $7.6billion Rank last year: 2 Anthony Pratt’s bet on a recovering United States economy is paying off. The value of his US-based Pratt Industries has surged this year thanks to an improving manufacturing sector and a lower Australian dollar. Pratt is also executive chairman of box maker and recycling business Visy, based in Melbourne. Visy is Australia’s largest private company by revenue and the biggest Australian-owned employer in the US. Pratt inherited the Visy leadership from his late father Richard in 2009, though the firm’s ownership is shared with sisters Heloise Waislitz and Fiona Geminder.

  • Sir Winston Churchill – Perspectives on Leadership
    SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL – PERSPECTIVES ON LEADERSHIP “Continuous effort – not strength or intelligence – is the key to unlocking our potential” Sir Winston Churchill We have written on numerous occasions about Sir Winston Churchill and lessons we can acquire from his most impressive life. Whilst we think of Sir Winston Churchill as one of the twentieth century’s most courageous leaders, that was not always the shared thought and opinion of his contemporaries. In fact at the commencement of the 1930’s, Churchill had found himself on the periphery of power, and most of his party colleagues, friends and pundits had written him off as a prospect for leadership. He had twice switched parties, was not trusted within the conservative party and was as a result becoming increasing isolated. It was during this time that Churchill openly warned of Hitler’s militarism and rearmament of Germany, but the British political class thought of Churchill as a warmonger rather than Hitler. Churchill did not shy away from his beliefs and wrote articles and gave many speeches highlighting Hitler’s growing menace and his military and potential European ambitions. He became known as an irritant. The then British Prime Minister, Stanley Baldwin, tried unsuccessfully to remove Churchill from the parliament. When Hitler and Germany invaded Poland the credibility of many of the British elite was shattered. Peace in our time and the policy of appeasement had utterly failed. Only one man had during this time consistently spoken out about Hitler, warning of probable danger to his own detriment. Churchill had felt tremendous resentment from those within his own party, now he was the person with the credibility to lead Britain in their darkest days.

He has left a legacy of a widely admired, growing association with outstanding success from our juniors, open’s and veterans. The continuation of these results and the direction towards collaboration and amalgamation represents the real challenge ahead for the Association.
