and a bit more recent:
> Whitlam moves no-confidence in Fraser - 3pm, 11 November 1975 - Following his dismissal by the Governor-General, Sir John Kerr, at around 1.00pm on Tuesday 11 November, Whitlam returned to the House of Representatives and listened as Fraser announced that he was now Prime Minister. This no-confidence motion against Fraser was carried by the House.
...
> Well May We Say God Save The Queen - "...because nothing will save the Governor-General." This is a video clip of Whitlam's famous words, during the speech where he also described Fraser as "Kerr's Cur" and urged his supporters to "maintain the rage and enthusiasm".
...
> Il Dismissale - Max Gillies' immortal satire on the Dismissal.
