  • 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.

  • The History of the Queensland Parliament, 1957–1989
    15 . The implosion of Joh Bjelke- Petersen, 1983–1987 The 1983 election ended the ‘constitutional crisis’ by providing the Nationals with exactly half the seats in the Parliament (41) and the opportunity to supplement their ministry with Liberal ministerialists who would agree to join the new government. The Premier had a number of options to secure his majority. Many of the surviving former Liberal ministers were not generally regarded as ‘anti-coalitionists’ in the previous government. The six potential ministerialists who might have been persuaded to change allegiances were: Norm Lee, Bill Lickiss, Brian Austin, Don Lane, Colin Miller and even Bill Knox. According to the Courier-Mail (15 July 1983), when two Coalition backbenchers, Bill Kaus and Bob Moore, had quit the Liberals and joined the Nationals in July, two Liberal ministers, Norm Lee and Bill Lickiss, already had indicated they would consider jumping ship. It was almost as if a race to defect was on. The two other Liberals to survive the 1983 poll, Terry White and Angus Innes, would not have been acceptable to the Premier and his senior ministers. In total, six of the eight Liberals had been ministers (although Miller had served for just 13 days after White was sacked and before the resignations of all the Liberals were accepted). Knox had been a minister since 1965 and Lee and Lickiss had been ministers since early 1975. They had some pedigree. Austin and Lane (and White) each had one parliamentary term as minister. Two Liberals, however, took the issue into their own hands. The day after the election, Austin and Lane had discussed the prospects of defecting and swapping parties, with Austin saying ‘I’m sick of this…I reckon we ought to give ’em the arse.

In this edition, we hope to enlighten you with the successes of our teams, and give you some fun and positive things to do while at home! We have competitions, fun and games, exclusive england netball member fitness codes for LRG fitness, and much more! But before all of that, we have some updates from the captains of each of our teams, including a captain’s player from the winter season! Regional team The Suffolk playoffs took place on 7th March. This saw a number of the Cambridge team being selected to make sure Thetford won the space to represent Suffolk in the east region playoff as a squad looking to enter the east regional league in September. For quite a few consecutive years we have won this stage. The first team we took to court against was Suffolk Rockets. For one reason or another, this was a must win game. We were not going to lose to them, in fact, I made it very clear we were going out to thrash them. With some clarity from Gill and the asking that we give 110%, we did not let her or Sue down. We held tight to our players throughout court, forcing them to make mistakes. Defence and centre court players were plucking interceptions from their long balls. The shooting from Emma and Ellie was marvellous and we won convincingly 20-8. We then took on Civil Service. We had a little swap around, bringing on fresh legs.

LE11 3QF www.ournetballhistory.org.uk EARLY BEGININGS 1891 Game invented in USA by a YMCA Secretary, where it was then, and is now, called Basketball. First match recorded in America1900 (Boston) 1895 Visit of Dr Justin Toles, an American, to Madam Österberg’s Physical Training College (then at Hampstead). Students were taught Basket Ball - indoors – there were no printed rules - no lines, circles or boundaries. The goals were two waste paper baskets hung on walls at each end of the hall. Within Madame Bergman Österberg’s Report, dated 1895 the following was recorded : Basket Ball is an American game introduced into our College by Dr Toles ; its aim is to get the ball into the opponents’ basket or goal, the basket being placed at a height of about seven or eight feet. The play is entirely with the hands, and no player is allowed to hold the ball for more than 5 seconds. It is a good winter game and can be played by any number. We played a few games in the gymnasium under Dr Toles’ supervision. 1897 Game played out of doors on grass. An American lady paid a visit to the College (who moved to Dartford), and taught the game as then played by women in America. The students at Dartford introduced rings instead of baskets, the large ball and the division of the ground into three courts. After completing the physical training course, graduates of the college were virtually guaranteed employment in girls’ schools throughout the country, with an ample yearly salary of £100! 1900 The newly formed Ling Association (now the Physical Education Association) set up a sub-committee 1901 to revise and publish the first set of rules, 250 copies were published and many changes were adopted.

  • 1 I Strongly Support the Concept of a Royal Commission and the Senate
    1 I strongly support the concept of a Royal Commission and the Senate Inquiry into media diversity, but do not propose a suggested terms of reference for the Royal Commission. The Terms of Reference for a Royal Commission are the preserve of the membership of the Senate Inquiry to recommend. But I hope the following content will be more than an incentive to the deliberative process in formulating the Terms of Reference, but are concurrently responsive to the Senate Inquiry invitation for submissions. Furthermore, I sincerely hope the following ideas will be critically examined by such an essential Royal Commission. I congratulate the Senate for establishing this Inquiry. My support for the spirit and intent of this initiative by the Senate has crystallised over the last decade. Australia does not support monopoly power in commerce industry & business, That’s why Australia has The ACCC – The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission. If one may instance an ACCC Queensland case study as it relates to newspapers and this Senate Inquiry. The ACCC comprehensively failed when it granted News Corp the right to acquire APN newspapers in areas like Mackay Rockhampton Gladstone Bundaberg Maryborough Harvey Bay Gympie and The Sunshine Coast. News Corp subsequently further failed all these communities and their citizens by closing down every printed newspaper in these localities. During this time the Commissioners from the ACCC made what I believed to be disappointing claims in the context of the further concentration of Australian media into the hands of News Corp, by saying that citizens in these areas could get news from other internet based news outlets.

  • Political Chronicles 1985 (Qld)
    Political Chronicle 305 QUEENSLAND Stafford By-Election A by-election in the state seat of Stafford was necessitated by the death on 21 June 1984 of the ALP incumbent, Dr Denis Murphy. It will be recalled that Dr Murphy first won the seat at the October 1983 general election, doing so by the narrow margin of 39 votes over the National party's candidate, Mr Pat Blake. On that occasion the then Liberal member of nine-years standing, Mr Terry Gygar, ran third, his performance mirroring the poor electoral showing statewide of the Liberals at that poll. Interestingly too, it was the leakage of 15 per cent of Mr Gygar's preferences which secured Dr Murphy's election, rather than Mr Blake's, in 1983. The very considerable significance of the Stafford contest was reflected in the vigor of each party's campaign, and in the sustained media focus on the candidates and issues in the several weeks preceding the 4 August polling date. Labor had the most to lose in Stafford. The party had, after all, only won Stafford ten months beforehand, and although its hold on the seat was only a tenuous one in terms of the October 1983 result, the ALP could expect to benefit from any anti-government swing in the metropolitan area. A failure by Labor to hold one of its own city seats in a by-election situation would be particularly damaging to the party's stocks in terms of maintaining political momentum in the lead-up to the 1986 state poll. In those terms it was not surprising that the ALP selected as its candidate Mrs Janine Walker, a prominent ABC broadcaster and well known Brisbane identity.
