CU & LV Snedden speaks 1.34 This film contains part of Mr. Snedden's speech: "The Labour experiment has been tried and it has failed. Through broken promises, sheer incompetence, the Labour Party has forfeited all rights you gave it to shape Australia's future. The decision you make will determine our lives far beyond the next Parliament, it will determine the future of Australia for the rest of this century. Now is the time for the Liberal-Country Party Government to take up the responsibility of Government and restore Australia to that right path. We will restore the ANZUS alliance. We will encourage a continuing American presence in Asia, the Pacific and the Indian Oceans. We will consult with our partners in the Five Power agreement as to the best from of Australian contribution." Initials BB/1855 RJ/MR/BB/1900 Script is copyright Reuters Limited. All rights reserved
