Australian Politician
The politics of Australia take place within the framework of a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy. Australia has maintained a stable liberal democratic political system under its Constitution, one of the world's oldest, since Federation in 1901. Australia is the world's sixth oldest continuous democracy and largely operates as a two-party system in which voting is compulsory. Australia is also a federation, where power is divided between the federal government and the states and territories. The federal government is separated into three branches: File:Au_gov_chart.svg, center, 640px, Structure of the Government of Australia, alt=A high level diagram of the structure of the Government of Australia, the three branches, legislative, executive, and judicial. rect 575 6 1175 56 Constitution of Australia rect 575 191 1175 241 Governor General of Australia rect 125 341 425 391 Legislative Branch rect 725 341 1025 391 Executive Branch rect 1325 341 1625 391 Jud ...

Greg Crafter
Gregory John Crafter (born 16 September 1944) is a former South Australian Labor Party politician. He was the member for Norwood from 1979 to 1993, with a short break from September 1979 to February 1980. Crafter was elected in a March 1979 by-election triggered by the abrupt resignation of Premier Don Dunstan, the member for Norwood since 1953. Only six months later, however, he was turned out of office by Liberal Frank Webster as Labor lost government in the September 1979 state election. When the Court of Disputed Returns overturned Webster's win, Crafter contested a February 1980 by-election for his old seat and won. He held the seat until his defeat in 1993.

South Australian House Of Assembly
The House of Assembly, or lower house, is one of the two chambers of the Parliament of South Australia. The other is the Legislative Council. It sits in Parliament House in the state capital, Adelaide. Overview The House of Assembly was created in 1857, when South Australia attained self-government. The development of an elected legislature — although only men could vote — marked a significant change from the prior system, where legislative power was in the hands of the Governor and the Legislative Council, which was appointed by the Governor. In 1895, the House of Assembly granted women the right to vote and stand for election to the legislature. South Australia was the second place in the world to do so after New Zealand in 1893, and the first to allow women to stand for election. (The first woman candidates for the South Australia Assembly ran in 1918 general election, in Adelaide and Sturt.) From 1857 to 1933, the House of Assembly was elected from multi-member dist ...

John Cornwall (South Australian Politician)
John Robert Cornwall (1 January 1935 – 1 August 2018) was a Labor member of the South Australian Legislative Council for 14 years, from 1975 to 1988. He was a senior member of the front bench for most of his political career. He was a graduate in veterinary science, so during his years as the Minister for Health he was almost always referred to as Dr. Cornwall, and almost never credited with a first name. His main claim to fame came in 1987-88 when he persuaded the reluctant Labor Premier of South Australia, John Bannon, to introduce a specially ear-marked tax on cigarettes (initially 50c/pk - later toned down to 5c/pk) which would be used to fund a buy-out sponsorships of both sporting organisations and prizes, and cultural/arts organisations by the tobacco industry who used the branding of events as an alternate form of advertising. Until that date (13 Apr 1988) the tobacco companies had used sports and arts sponsorships to create powerful allies who were always guaranteed t ...

Tom Casey (Australian Politician)
Thomas Mannix Casey (12 March 1921 – 25 September 2003) was a politician in the State of South Australia. History He was born in Quorn, South Australia, where his father James Casey may have been proprietor of the Hotel Austral, then farmed at "Amelia Park", Peterborough. He was educated at Unley High School. He was chosen the Labor candidate for the seat of Frome in the House of Assembly in November 1960 following the unexpected death of sitting member Mick O'Halloran. Tom was not even a member of the Labor Party, but as a respected local identity was considered to have a better chance of following the idiosyncratic O'Halloran than an outsider from the Union movement. After a redistribution erased his majority and made Frome a notional LCL seat, Casey resigned in May 1970 to contest a Central No. 1 district seat in the Legislative Council. He held the seat until September 1979, when he resigned, having successfully made the transition to the single-electorate Council in 1975 ...
