I hope people understand that lucid explanation of the arrangements and I think, in order to avoid confusion amongst honourable members also, it would be only fair if the Leader of the Country Party would say whether he represents in this House the Country Party, the National Alliance, the Nationals or the National Party because I would not like to use the wrong title. [More…]
There will be a gorgeous alliance with people like the Premier of Queensland who sits in judgment on others, calls his State a sovereign State - nobody has yet explained to me what that expression means - and holds sway on something less than 19 per cent of the vote. [More…]
The question of alliances always arises. [More…]
I do not know alliances with whom and for what. [More…]
But instead of talking about alliances between governments we ought to be talking about alliances between people and an understanding by people of people. [More…]
So an alliance between governments is no alliance at all unless there is an alliance between people. [More…]
At the moment there is no alliance between the Australian people and the American people because nothing is done to promote it. [More…]
But certainly there are alliances. [More…]
There is an alliance between the people of South East Asia and the people of Australia. [More…]
My visit to Australia impresses me with the vitality of our alliance. [More…]
I am not sure whether I am correct in referring to him by that title, or whether it should be the Leader of the Alliance Party or the National Party. [More…]
This was the Leader of the Country Party or the Alliance Party or the National Country Party, whatever one chooses to call it. [More…]
From a national standpoint, or, indeed, from any rational economic viewpoint at all, it is glaringly evident that there is no reason hurriedly to accept the oil companies’ case for a major rise in crude prices or for that matter Mr Anthony’s alliance with them on this issue. [More…]
Is this new Country Party manifesto on oil prices a warning to primary producers of the divided interests which are to be served by the Alliance Party, National Alliance, Country Party or whatever you like to call it? [More…]
The great pity is that the people who purport to be representing country electorates and who for the time being go under the name of the Australian Country Party, which is soon to be called the Alliance Party or the National Alliance Party, have not so far shown the same deep concern for country people that has been shown repeatedly by the honourable member for Eden-Monaro. [More…]
He said that the Liberal State Government would join in a 4-State alliance against the Labor Federal Government. [More…]
This applies equally to the 3 anti-Labor State governments with whom Sir Charles Court is so keen to establish a four-State alliance as well as to the others. [More…]
Under proposed amendments to the Electoral Act which will enable listing of registered party names on ballot papers will the newly formed National Liberal Party be able to use this name because of its similarity in meaning to the Liberal Party of Australia, the National Alliance and the proposed National Country Party? [More…]
The legislation is already complicated by the announced change of name of the Country Party, which lists itself under a variety of noms de plume such as the ‘National Alliance’, the ‘National Party of Australia’ and the ‘National Country Party’. [More…]
In quite a non-political way, to assist honourable members opposite in their hour of need and to avoid the confusion that exists between the trendy and the non-trendy Liberals, the Country Party Alliance, the National Alliance and the National Country Party, I suggest that the best way to make a formal vote in any following election is to vote No. [More…]
Alliance Oil and Minerals - minerals shut down about September 1973; oil section continuing with reduced staff. [More…]
The member of the National Alliance Party who has just interjected is in a Party that has been decimated. [More…]
But roughly speaking, the National Alliance Party received 10 per cent of the vote in Western Australia, the Australian Labor Party received 48.5 per cent of the vote and the Liberal Party received 41 per cent or thereabouts. [More…]
If 48.8 per cent of the vote in the State election in Western Australia is a sign of no confidence in Labor, may I ask what 10 per cent of the vote for the National Alliance is? [More…]
Of course the National Alliance received a line up of very small seats with its 10 per cent of the vote. [More…]
Our alliance and working defence relationship with the United States continue important of course - in terms of the global balance, of our regional standing, of the long-term contingency of serious deterioration in our strategic situation, and of defence force in several important practical respects. [More…]
When I was in the United States early last January, I was able to re-affirm publicly in New York and privately in Washington, to the Secretaries of State and Defence, Drs Kissinger and Schlesinger, and to other senior members of the United States Administration and the United States Armed Services, the importance I and my colleagues in the Government continued to attach to Australia’s alliance and practical working defence relationship with the United States. [More…]
The Country Party has joined the DLP to form the National Alliance. [More…]
The Country Party and the DLP have formed the National Alliance. [More…]
He will not have any alliance with the DLP and he will not contest metropolitan seats or Liberal held seats. [More…]
I myself am a bit confused as 1 noticed an advertisement by the Australian National Party or National Alliance or Australian Country Party, in which a photograph of the honourable gentleman appears above the name ‘Peter Nixon’. [More…]
More importantly perhaps than anything else, Australian firms or Australian based firms that have gone overseas rather than put up with the Minister’s policies- which have been aptly described by some of my colleagues as the policies of a banana republic- because they reckon that when they go overseas they are dealing with governments with which they can deal, which is not the case with this mob, include the Australian OU and Gas, Australian Associated Resources, Alliance, Beach, South Pacific, Endeavour, Broken Hill Pty, Magellan Hartogen and Target companies. [More…]
For example, in an address at a symposium conducted in Sydney on 7 June 1973, during the Australian Insurance Institute Annual Conference, Mr D. G. Pettigrew, the Managing Director of Sun Alliance Insurance Ltd, said: [More…]
The interests of NATO countries in Europe are determined by a number of factors, including their particular geographical location and their commitments to the alliance. [More…]
ANZUS has always represented more than a defence alliance. [More…]
While the security of Australia has never rested solely upon the American alliance, that alliance remains a key element in it. [More…]
Depending upon the future alliance of the North Vietnamese regime or its degree of independence from Russia or China, there is a potential for adding to that feeling of encirclement. [More…]
Australia values the closeness and strength of its friendship and alliance with the United States. [More…]
The South Vietnamese Government was not anxious to have other military forces operating in South Vietnam but the United States, for its own purposes, wanted to have a broadening of the alliance so that the United States President could tell his own people that there was a wide support for United States policies. [More…]
I am alarmed to find that there is evidence of a secret alliance between the Australian Mutual Provident Society and the Country Party, and that secret meetings have been held between representatives of the AMP Society and the Country Party. [More…]
Senator Wheeldon said yesterday the documents revealed that there was ‘a secret alliance between the AMP Society and the Country Party and that secret meetings had taken place’. [More…]
Part of the Government’s campaign against the insurance companies has involved allegations of a secret alliance between the Australian Mutual Provident Society and my Party with claims that the Society has contributed financially to my Party’s funds. [More…]
In 1973-74 the Sun Alliance Insurance Co. spent 33c of every premium dollar it was paid on commissions and expenses. [More…]
What an extraordinary alliance against the interests of the farmer, the man on the land- the first and the greatest victim of national calamity! [More…]
An example of the unholy alliance is contained in an article which appeared recently in a Gippsland newspaper. [More…]
I suggest to the honourable member with the greatest respect that it would be asking too much of a Senate, an Upper House divided as it is at certain times in a nation’s history and often under the control- if I may say this- of an alliance of influences with Opposition and independent senators holding views which are not reflected in the House of Representatives. [More…]
Unlike other agreements it is not possible for any nation to get specific performance of an alliance, of a treaty arrangement of this kind. [More…]
That is a fine way to continue building up that reservoir of goodwill that the honourable member for Moreton (Mr Killen) so aptly referred to when discussing what was necessary for an alliance to be properly effective. [More…]
The reality is that those who follow the foreign policies espoused by the honourable member for Lalor are those who wish to see the alliance between the United States of America and Australia torn asunder. [More…]
The value of any alliance is ultimately dependent on the reservoir of goodwill that exists between the member states to that alliance. [More…]
The insults, the denigration, the constant calling into question of the value of that alliance, must have jeopardised that reservoir of goodwill to a substantial extent. [More…]
Mr Barnard, the then Minister for Defence, and the United States Secretary of Defence, Mr Schlesinger, saw the status of the station as a bilateral arrangement in the framework of the ANZUS Treatywords that must have been written for Mr Barnard by members of the Opposition Partiesfundamental to the ANZUS alliance, fundamental to the ANZUS Treaty and a part of the bilateral arrangement between 2 countries which share a common approach to the world’s problems today as stronger members of the Western industrialised democracies. [More…]
It rests on the ANZUS alliance, as has been recognised by the Prime Minister. [More…]
For example, in January 1973 he said that Labor had a mandate and a duty to maintain the American alliance. [More…]
If the Government alleges that it believes in an American alliance- it says it does but it does little to prove it- and if it then opposes the expansion of a logistic support base at Diego Garcia, it is, in racing parlance, trying to ride 2 horses in different directions at the one time, and it cannot be done. [More…]
This is an area where we can play an important role but all we will hear for the next 20 years is whether we are to be loyal to the United States alliance and whether we are to rely on ANZUS. [More…]
Australian peole would not accept the argument for to accept it would be to prejudice very seriously the defence capacity of this country in alliance with a great ally, the United States. [More…]
We are certainly not prepared to accept the claim that we committed acts of treachery when we entered into this agreement with the specific intention of honouring our obligations to the ANZUS alliance. [More…]
The truth is that their left wing demands from them and they do not all agree with this that they should renounce the United States alliance and go into the communist orbit. [More…]
The first was a misconception about what constitutes an ally and the sort of stance which partners in an alliance should take. [More…]
That is a very important concept of the role of an ally in a healthy alliance. [More…]
I do not think that in any alliance we have to boast or act as though we are going through some boy scout ceremony of crediting our allegiance by lying flat on the floor and saying: ‘We are your ally. [More…]
I think it was this unhealthy nature of the alliance during the period of the previous Liberal-Country Party Government that affected the very real and basic relationship that exists between the people of the United States of America and the people of Australia. [More…]
This United States Naval Communications Station Agreement Bill fits into that alliance. [More…]
We can regard that alliance as the wood. [More…]
In that address- I am paraphrasing it- he made it clear that one of the great problems in the United States in terms of trade was that an alliance could be found between what he called American capitalists and leaders of Russia which acts to the disadvantage of the United States. [More…]
It took the view that alliances were passe and that it does not matter about friends of the past. [More…]
When you enter into an alliance it is supposed to be of equal partners. [More…]
The Western alliance based on the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation is showing very real signs of decay. [More…]
What I want to talk about is the facile way in which Government spokesmen tend to assume that the United States will rush to our rescue, because these spokesmen always treat the Australia-New Zealand-United States treaty as a firm alliance. [More…]
The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation alliance is every bit as strong or, if you like, every bit as weak as the ANZUS pact. [More…]
The NATO headquarters was in France, and it finally came to the point where de Gaulle needed to ask a straight question: ‘If, because of the presence of these headquarters, or because of the position of France in the alliance, the Soviet Union were to land a few nuclear missiles on France, would the United States retaliate on her behalf?’ [More…]
France has not left the NATO alliance but it has cleared NATO headquarters out of France and proceeded to develop at great speed, its force de frappe, its own independent nuclear deterrent. [More…]
The particular sources of concern with the proposals, which I am advised did become law on 14 February of this year are, firstly, the description of Poland as a ‘socialist state’; secondly, a reference to the Polish United Workers Partythat is, of course, the Communist Party- as the leading political force in the country; thirdly, a reference to Poland’s alliance with the Soviet Union; and, fourthly, a clause that would have made citizens’ rights contingent upon their fulfilling duties towards the state. [More…]
The amendment also included the incorporation into the constitution of an official eternal alliance with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or, to use the original wording, to make the constitution reflect the ‘unshakable fraternal bond’ with the Soviet Union. [More…]
In the interests of our national security, the Australian Government attaches great importance to the presence in this area, under the ANZUS alliance, of the United [More…]
We have a military alliance with the United States through the ANZUS Treaty. [More…]
The vital character of our alliance with the United States and with ANZUS requires this action to be taken. [More…]
The principles which we apply to nuclear powered allied warships will inevitably apply to nuclear powered merchant ships under any flag or to nuclear powered warships of countries with which we have no alliance. [More…]
As far as entry of nuclear powered warships or nuclear powered merchant ships is concerned, the question of alliance or no alliance does not arise. [More…]
I suggest to the honourable member with the greatest respect that it would be asking too much of a Senate, an upper House divided as it is in certain times of a nation’s history and often under the control- if I may say this- of an alliance of influences with Opposition and Independent senators holding views which are not reflected in the House of Representatives. [More…]
From the day this Government aborted our already conservative constitutional conventions so as to steal office, there has been no doubt that the Liberal-National Country Party alliance is one of political reactionaries; that the FraserAnthonyLynch triumvirate is the political wing of the capitalist class. [More…]
The unholy alliance between local manufacturers who can seek additional tariff protection and unions who want to use such protection for unreasonable wage demands is significant. [More…]
The reason I raise this matter is that the Government has given great emphasis to its contention that the whole defence of this country is dependent upon the ANZUS Treaty, the ANZUS alliance. [More…]
Not only can a country maintain its independence within an alliance, but an alliance often provides the best guarantee of its continued independence. [More…]
Only the Fraser Government could make a statement on the arts an occasion for celebrating free enterprise and the American alliance. [More…]
Indeed, western Europe is one of 2 pillars of the Atlantic alliance and its performance in that respect is important, not only in itself but in its effect on the performance of its partner, the United States of America. [More…]
Over the next 10-15 years the world could become a lawless place with the United States alliance breaking down and conflict between Russia and America with China being dragged in. [More…]
The key to our defence policy remains the strength of our alliance with the United States and the ANZUS treaty. [More…]
Yet this alliance, however strong it may be, must not lull us into a false sense of security. [More…]
I emphasise as strongly as I can that if we are taking this role for the future- I am in no way disagreeing with it- it is tremendously important that the Government establish, through a market force system or some other system, a mechanism which will prevent an unholy alliance between the employer and the employee on the waterfront which will be to the detriment of all Australians, particularly those who live by exports or imports. [More…]
The key to our defence policy remains the strength of our alliance with the United States and the ANZUS Treaty. [More…]
Yet this alliance, however strong it may be, must not lull us into a sense of false security. [More…]
Together with the report of the Australian Council for Educational Research, the report of the Select Committee forms the basis of an alliance for literacy. [More…]
It provides a blueprint for what the Opposition believes is a very desirable ‘alliance for literacy’. [More…]
To the extent that that principle has been identified, recognised and accommodated by the Liberal Party especially- I know it has had to make some kind of diversion from the pursuance of that principle because of its alliance with the Country Party- I pay it some tribute. [More…]
They also have the right to belong or not to belong to international organisations, to be or not to be a party to bilateral or multilateral treaties including the right to be or not to be a party to treaties of alliance; they also have the right to neutrality. [More…]
He does not recollect -or more likely prefers to forget- the spectacular thud of the sortie of his Prime Minister (Mr Malcolm Fraser) into Sino-Australian relations in China a little over 8 months ago when the Prime Minister proposed a 4-power alliance, including clumsily aligning himself with the Chinese on a fairly sensitive issue which the Japanese were trying to handle delicately; questioned the future security of Malaysia and Singapore; raised doubts about the stability of the Indonesian Government; and challenged India’s sincerity in its concern for world peace. [More…]
We have said that we will have no military alliance or contact with South Africa. [More…]
We pursue Australia’s interests, express our disagreement with American policy where it exists, but the fundamental importance attached to the alliance and the general relationship are no longer in question. [More…]
He went on to say, ‘We are prepared to express disagreement with the United States alliance whenever it exists’. [More…]
So long as we remain committed to the mainstream of western democratic ideals we can never underestimate our power to have influence and effect in that alliance. [More…]
The Minister for Industry and Commerce in alliance with his junior Minister, the Minister for Business and Consumer Affairs (Mr Howard), is turning back the clock in Australiaback on the debate about industry in this country, back on the public debate that was encouraged by the Labor Party. [More…]
Those who are opposed to our alliance with the United States have naturally sought to exploit this issue for their own purposes. [More…]
It is utterly beside the point to argue that Australia and the United States are friendly powers bound by treaties and military alliances. [More…]
Those treaties and military alliances do not endorse- they cannot condone- covert operations. [More…]
Our alliance with the United States is valuable and important. [More…]
I think it is appropriate in this context that I should quote from a publication entitled The Review of International Affairs dated November 1 976 which is published periodically in Belgrade for the Socialist Alliance of Working People. [More…]
He also speaks of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia and the Socialist Alliance as representing ‘the basis of our socio-political activities connected with citizens temporarily employed abroad*. [More…]
Australians are being ripped-off by this unholy alliance to the tune of between $7,000 and $10,000 a patient. [More…]

[More…]
The Prime Minister is intent on maintaining an unholy alliance with the Premier of Queensland, an alliance designed to divert the Premier from engaging in his favourite sport prior to a premature Federal election- Canberra bashing. [More…]
It was an unprecedented conspiracy of violence; a freak alliance of the country’s traditional foes- storm, bushfire and flooding. [More…]
So we go on through this close relationship and alliance between the Minister and members of the National Country Party and the board of Connair. [More…]
have been based upon an alliance between my party and the Country Party which in all these years has never been broken, and in the whole of which I have been profoundly indebted to the members of both parties who, though they may be critical and, of course, undoubtedly are from time to time, have been staunch and loyal. [More…]
I look back with great satisfaction on the fact that there has been a fruitful and constant alliance with the Country Party . [More…]

If we do not, before we know where we are we may find that Japan, having lost faith in the American alliance, will have re-armed and sought alliance with China. [More…]
The consequences of the failure to bring about the sort of alliance I have described may well be that serious eventually. [More…]
This time last year it was one of the future housing initiatives of the Liberal Country Party alliance which has now found it to have no teeth and no usefulness. [More…]
At the same time, it is evident that circumstances can alter rapidly, that we are enmeshed in the Western strategic alliance, and that problems of quite different kinds can emerge in terms of access to resources or control over resources. [More…]
Since then he has no doubt resumed dreaming of trips overseas, particularly at Christmas time, to Jamaica, Montego Bay, New Delhi and Washington- anywhere he can think of where he will no doubt restore the resolve of the Western alliance, establish the new international economic order and get India to join the nuclear free zone. [More…]
Suddenly cracks are appearing in the alliance. [More…]
We can join in any sort of military alliance. [More…]
So that it could control the outcome of the election it established a purely bogus political party, the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance. [More…]
Obviously what happened then was that the newspapers were used to disseminate heavily prejudiced propaganda in support of the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance, which of course, I ought to mention, although it is unnecessary, was exclusively pro-South African Government in its outlook- a political party which was fabricated around conservative white and conservative black interests. [More…]
Firstly, it sought in 1976 to dramatise the alliance with the United States, an alliance which Labor had sought to improve and place on an equal basis. [More…]
Their concept of an alliance was very much to regenerate, as I said earlier, the Dulles and Menzies eras- the. [More…]
The present Prime Minister and Foreign Minister could not sustain that relationship for its own virtue and instead proposed that we enter into another alliance, a treaty, between China, Japan and the United States. [More…]
In fact, we are seeing a pronounced deterioration in the relative strength of the United States and its allies visavis the Soviet Union and its allies, a pronounced deterioration in the capacity of the Western alliance to present a united face, and a deterioration in the capacity of the Third World to feel that in the West it has a group of states which are reliable, can be depended upon to make decisions and have the courage to carry them out for the welfare of mankind. [More…]
We have heard a few speeches about the South East Asia Treaty Organisation alliance. [More…]
The Australian-American alliance is as important to Australia as it has ever been.’ [More…]
Secondly, if one reads the speeches one will find an extraordinary bewilderment about the Government’s foreign alliances. [More…]
So here we have the honourable member for Kennedy arguing an alliance between the Government and what he called atheistic communists ‘ of the Chinese brand. [More…]
It is quite clear that the American strategy in respect of Asia and the West Pacific rests upon an alliance between three powers- the United States, Japan and China. [More…]
In all the analyses made by Brzezinski- I choose his because he is one of the immense talents behind President Carter- he stated that the alliance depended on the three powers to which I referred. [More…]
Equally, one can understand that China will be, and obviously is, concerned when it sees that in the communist world the Vietnamese are operating in an increasingly closer alliance with, and with an increasing dependence upon, the Soviet Union. [More…]
I told Women’s Action Alliance at weekend that the economic value of domestic work should be assessed and recognised in the National Accounts when we are calculating GDP and that housewives should be counted when determining workforce numbers. [More…]

Your article entitled ‘soldier in tears calls Vietnamese to battle’ (Sydney Morning Herald, 30 April 1979) presents a dangerously distorted view of the Greater Overseas Alliance for the National Restoration of Vietnam and its NSW Chairman Vo Dai Ton. [More…]
This is in some contrast to your article of 1 May 1 978 in which you showed the links between the Greater Overseas Alliance and extreme right-wing Australian groups that seek to create instability in the society here. [More…]
The members and supporters of the Alliance who wore headbands inscribed with the words ‘national shame’ apparently do not consider their support of the Thieu regime and its atrocities to be shameful. [More…]
I would adopt this language with respect to the bases in question: ‘This Government will not yield to pressure to break the American alliance, withdraw from the ANZUS treaty or divulge secrets about American defence bases in Australia’. [More…]
This would restore Australia’s sovereignty over the bases, would give Australia greater independence, make it a more equal partner in the activities and improve the health of the Australian/American alliance. [More…]
If the Government shrouds things in secrecy, if it casts them in the mould of something that is privileged to itself then it is weakening the maturity of the Australian nation and weakening the alliance. [More…]
That is no way to run our alliance with the United States. [More…]
That did not help the alliance. [More…]
His Government- win not yield to pressure to break the American alliance, withdraw from the ANZUS Treaty or divulge secrets about American defence bases in Australia. [More…]
That was based on an economic alliance with conservative, if not reactionary, and repressive East and South East Asian governments and was formed for the purpose of moving more and more American and Japanese industry into new locations in the capital of the East and South East Asian region. [More…]
This shift of direction of investment, necessary for Japan because of the very success of her economy, has begun to have serious effects for the United States, where there is a steady loss of jobs not so much because of innovative technology but because, of the alliance between American and Japanese capital and technical know-how, and cheap labour assisted by generous programs of support to encourage export oriented industries, very often designed to penetrate the American, European and Australian markets, where higher profits might be earned. [More…]
One unanswered question concerning the education work alliance is whether the right balance is being struck in the training received by apprentices. [More…]
