Australia Party

The Australia Party was a minor political party in Australia which grew out of the Liberal Reform movement , which was disaffected with the Liberal Party of Australia, and particularly, with its policy of conscription and military involvement in the Vietnam War.

The "Australia Party" name was adopted in 1969. In 1977, after several years of decline, most of the party joined in the formation of the Australian Democrats. Significant figures in the Australia Party were former ALP Senator Reg Turnbull (leader from 1969-1970), and journalist Alan Fitzgerald .
