Image
shown at Roger Scott's exhibition The 1970s: A Decade of Protest
held at the Museum of Sydney in 2008. A Sydney Morning Herald
reviewer wrote of this picture: "On a muggy November day
in 1975, two weeks after the dismissal of Gough Whitlam, a young
photographer named Roger Scott attended a Liberal Party rally
at Randwick Racecourse. 'There were about 20,000 Liberal supporters
there,' Scott says. 'And Malcolm Fraser, standing up on the flatbed
of a semitrailer, whipping them into a frenzy.' Wriggling through
the crowd, camera in hand, Scott made his way onto the back of
Fraser's flatbed and, standing up, began taking photos. 'He was
really egging on the crowd, saying things like, "A vote
for Labor is a vote for the communists,"' Scott says. 'After
a while I'd just had enough and Iyelled out: "Fraser, you're
a f---ing dope!"' Incensed, the Liberal leader whipped around
and pointed at Scott just as he snapped a piece of Australian
photographic history." (Ref: SMH, 15/03/2008). Illustrated
