A marginal division requires a swing of less than six per cent, a fairly safe division requires a swing of six to ten per cent and a safe division requires a swing of over ten per cent. In all tables, first preference votes are expressed as a percentage of formal votes, formal and informal votes are expressed as a percentage of total votes, and total votes are expressed as a percentage of electors enrolled. In the detailed electoral division tables the swing percentages for the candidates will not necessarily sum to zero because of the different range of candidates at the 2016 election compared with the 2013 election. 1. Initially, on 3 February 2017, the Court of Disputed Returns determined Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Senator for Western Australia, Rodney Culleton, was disqualified from being elected at the 2016 election under section 44(ii) of the Constitution. Also, the Court of Disputed Returns, on 5 April 2017, determined that South Australia’s Family First Senator, Robert (Bob) Day, was disqualified from being elected under section 44(v) of the Constitution. Special counts of the Senate votes cast in Western Australia and South Australia at the 2016 election were required to fill the vacancies created by these disqualifications. Further special counts were required in Western Australia in late 2017 and South Australia in early 2018 (see Footnotes 2 and 5). 2. On 27 October 2017, the Court of Disputed Returns determined the ineligibility under section 44(i) of the Constitution of: Nationals Senator for New South Wales, Fiona Nash; Greens Senator for Queensland, Larissa Waters; Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Senator for Queensland, Malcolm Roberts; and Greens Senator for Western Australia, Scott Ludlum. Special counts of the Senate votes cast in New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia at the 2016 election were required to fill the vacancies created by these disqualifications. 3. On 15 November 2017, the Court of Disputed Returns determined the successful candidate from the New South Wales special count, the Liberal Party’s Hollie Hughes, was ineligible to be elected under section 44(iv) of the Constitution. A further special count was ordered for New South Wales. 4. In Tasmania, Jacqui Lambie, founder of the Jacqui Lambie Network, and Stephen Parry, a Liberal and President of the Senate, both resigned after realising they were dual citizens. A special count of the 2016 Senate votes was ordered on 12 December 2017. However, the successful candidates were not announced until 9 February 2018, after one of the successful candidates, Jacqui Lambie Network’s Steven Martin, had been determined by the Court of Disputed Returns to be an eligible candidate under section 44(iv) of the Constitution—he was Mayor of Devonport at the time of nomination. 5. On 13 February 2018, the Court of Disputed Returns determined Skye Kakoschke-Moore of the Nick Xenophon Team was ineligible to be a candidate at the 2016 election under section 44(i) of the Constitution. A special count of the Senate votes cast in South Australia at the 2016 election was required to fill her vacancy. 6. In the continuing dual citizenship saga affecting the 45th Parliament Katy Gallagher, the Labor Senator for the Australian Capital Territory, was referred to the Court of Disputed Returns. On 9 May 2018, the Court disqualified Ms Gallagher under section 44(i) of the Constitution and a special count of 2016 Senate votes was required to provide her replacement. 7. Special counts are required to replace Senators found ineligible to sit in the Parliament (ineligible Members are replaced via by-elections). A special count reassesses the voter preference data taken from the ballot papers of votes cast at the previous Senate election. Voter first preferences for an ineligible Senator are disregarded and the voter preferences to the next preferred

  • (2019) Churchill's Defeat in Dundee, 1922, and the Decline of Liberal
    Tomlinson, J. (2019) Churchill’s defeat in Dundee, 1922, and the decline of liberal political economy. Historical Journal, (Accepted for Publication). There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/192576/ Deposited on: 9 August 2019 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Churchill’s defeat in Dundee, 1922, and the decline of liberal political economy JIM TOMLINSON University of Glasgow Churchill’s defeat Abstract: This article uses Churchill’s defeat in Dundee in 1922 to examine the challenges to liberal political economy in Britain posed by the First World War. In particular, the focus is on the impact of the war on re-shaping the global division of labour and the difficulties in responding to the domestic consequences of this re- shaping. Dundee provides an ideal basis for examining the links between the local politics and global economic changes in this period because of the traumatic effects of the war and on the city. Dundee depended to an extraordinary extent on one, extremely ‘globalised’ industry, jute, for its employment. All raw jute brought to Dundee came from Bengal, and the markets for its product were scattered all over the world. Moreover, the main competitive threat to the industry came from a much poorer economy (India) so that jute manufacturing was the first major British industry to be significantly affected by low wage competition. Before 1914 the Liberals combined advocacy of free trade with a significant set of interventions in the labour market and in social welfare, including Trade Boards.

We specify three types of networked communication - identity reinforcement, force multiplication and opponent dismissal - and hypothesise variance in their performance based on key party variables of size and ideological outlook. We test our hypotheses using an original comparative hyperlink dataset. The findings support expectations that hyperlinks are being used for networked communication by parties, with identity reinforcement and force multiplication being more common than opponent dismissal. The results are important in demonstrating the wider communicative significance of hyperlinks, in addition to their structural properties as linkage devices for websites.

  • Independents in Federal Parliament: a New Challenge Or a Passing Phase?
    Independents in Federal Parliament: A new challenge or a passing phase? Jennifer Curtin1 Politics Program, School of Political and Social Inquiry Monash University, Melbourne, Australia. [email protected] “Politics just is the game played out by rival parties, and anyone who tries to play politics in some way entirely independent of parties consigns herself to irrelevance.” (Brennan, 1996: xv). The total dominance of Australia’s rival parties has altered since Brennan made this statement. By the time of the 2001 federal election, 29 registered political parties contested seats and while only the three traditional parties secured representation in the House of Representatives (Liberals, Nationals and Labor) three independents were also elected. So could we argue that the “game” has changed? While it is true that government in Australia, both federally and in the states and territories, almost always alternates between the Labor Party and the Liberal Party (the latter more often than not in coalition with the National Party), independent members have been a feature of the parliaments for many years, particularly at the state level (Costar and Curtin, 2004; Moon,1995). Over the last decade or so independents have often been key political players: for a time, they have held the balance of power in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory. More generally, since 1980 an unprecedented 56 independents have served in Australian parliaments. In 2003, 25 of them were still there. This is more than six times the number of independents elected in the 1970s. New South Wales has been the most productive jurisdiction during that time, with fourteen independent members, and Tasmania the least, with only one.

  • 23. Explaining the Results
    23. Explaining the Results Antony Green Labor came to office in 2007 with its strongest hold on government in the nation’s history—it was, for the first time, in office nationally and in every state and territory. Six years later Labor left national office with its lowest first preference vote in a century. For only the third time since the First World War, a governing party failed to win a third term in office. From a clean sweep of governments in 2007, by mid-2014 Labor’s last bastions were minority governments in South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory.1 Based on the national two-party-preferred vote, Labor’s 2013 result was less disastrous than previous post-war lows in 1966, 1975, 1977 and 1996. Labor also bettered those four elections on the proportion of House seats won. The two-party-preferred swing of 3.6 percentage points was also small for a change of government election, equal to the swing that defeated the Fraser Government in 1983 but smaller than those suffered by Whitlam in 1975, Keating in 1996 and Howard in 2007. Even over two elections from 2007 to 2013, the two-party- preferred swing of 6.2 percentage points was below that suffered by Labor previously over two elections (1961–66 and 1972–75), and smaller than the swing against the Coalition between 1977 and 1983. By the measure of first preference vote share, the 2013 election was a dreadful result for Labor, its lowest vote share since 1904.2 Labor’s vote share slid from 43.4 per cent in 2007 to 38.0 per cent in 2010 and 33.4 per cent in 2013.

I also make modest suggestions for changes to formality rules for House of Representatives elections. I have attached a substantial appendix outlining past research on NSW Legislative Council Elections. This includes ballot paper surveys from 1999 and research on exhaustion rates under the new above the line optional preferential voting system used since 2003. I can provide the committee with further research on the NSW Legislative Council system, as well as some ballot paper research I have been carrying out on the 2013 Senate election.

  • Class Versus Industry Cleavages: Inter-Industry Factormobility and the Politicsof Trade Michael J.Hiscox
    Class Versus Industry Cleavages: Inter-Industry FactorMobility and the Politicsof Trade Michael J.Hiscox Introduction Theexpansion of internationaltrade has been a powerfulengine driving economic growthin Western nations over the last two centuries. At thesame time, it has provokedan enormous amount of internalpolitical con ict, since trade has disparate effectson different sets of individuals within an economy. Although con ict between“ winners”and “ losers”has been a constantin tradepolitics, the character ofthepolitical coalitions that have fought these battles— the nature of thesocietal cleavagesthat the trade issue creates— appears to have differed signi cantly across timeand place. Consequently,the literature on the political economy of trade has developed somethingof a splitpersonality. Many scholars, following in thegrand tradition of E.E.Schattschneider,have focused on thepolitical role of narrowindustry groups or“ specialinterests” in the policymaking process. 1 Thisapproach has been prominentlyadopted by PeterGourevitch and is common to quantitativestudies of tradebarriers inspired by the “ endogenouspolicy” literature in economics. 2 In contrast,Ronald Rogowski has famouslyexamined broad factoral or classcoalitions ina rangeof historical contexts, highlighting political con icts among owners of land,labor, and capital over the direction of tradepolicy. 3 Otheranalysts, drawing distinctionsbetween owners of multinationaland other types of capital,or between Anearlier versionof this article was presentedat the1995 Annual Meeting of theAmerican Political Science Associationin Chicago.
