The Nationals

Personnel

• Federal National Party leaders since 1920

Philosophy

• Perhaps unaware of the old adage that if you can remember the 60s you weren’t there, the Deputy Prime Minister and Leader of the National Party, John Anderson, has delivered a critique of the 1960s to a conference of his party, decrying the loss of traditional family values. His comments are a good example of the social conservatism of the National Party. [June 17, 2002]
