Best of 2025 - Working with PM Fraser - the changeover - Part 1 John Menadue stayed on as the most senior public servant in the land, after the trauma of the Dismissal. In this 5-part series he details what life was like working with PM Fraser. Given his closeness to Whitlam, some of his conclusions are surprising.

I had a strong sense that I didn’t belong. But I didn’t feel perturbed as perhaps I expected. Belonging was no longer so important. It was transforming to realise that if push came to shove, I could survive as an outsider...JM #auspol #MalcolmFraser #theDismissal

Malcolm Fraser: a decent man committed to an independent Australia Personal experience and recent reflections challenge the popular caricature of Malcolm Fraser, revealing a former prime minister increasingly willing to defy orthodoxy in defence of sovereignty, justice and independence.

Behind the public caricature was a principled critic of war, financial speculation and strategic dependence. Robert Barwick offers a personal reflection on Malcolm Fraser’s final years.
