Condolences for Gough Whitlam

We mourn the loss of Gough Whitlam, former Prime Minister of Australia (1972-1975) and Labor Leader (1967-1977).

Gough redefined Australia through his relentless pursuit of social justice, the effects of which are still felt today. He left a legacy of accessible education, affordable healthcare, and indigenous recognition in Australia.

Millions of Australians will feel his loss, and we join with them in expressing our deep condolences.

A lovely Jeff Kennett column on Gough today in the Herald Sun. Far better than nasty Bolt sniping on his blog.
