About this listen

In Part Two, we hit the breaking point of 1975: the Senate blocks supply, the government runs out of money, and the Governor-General makes the most dramatic intervention in Australian political history. We unpack Whitlam’s iconic dismissal speech, what the Palace Letters later revealed about the Palace’s involvement, and why Cold War tension fuelled long-running rumours of CIA interference.
