Bob Hawke vs Michel Temer

Hawke's government floated the Australian dollar, allowing its value to be determined by market forces rather than fixed by the central bank. This deregulation was a key part of broader financial reforms that modernized the Australian economy.

Hawke led the Australian Labor Party to a landslide victory in the 1983 federal election, defeating Malcolm Fraser. His campaign focused on consensus and economic reform, promising to bring the nation together after years of political division.

Hawke's government negotiated the Prices and Incomes Accord with the Australian Council of Trade Unions. This agreement traded wage restraint for social wage improvements, reducing industrial disputes and helping control inflation during economic reform.

Hawke's government introduced Medicare, a universal public health insurance system replacing the earlier Medibank. Funded by a 1% levy on income, Medicare provided free hospital treatment and subsidized medical services to all Australians.

Hawke led Labor to victory in the 1990 federal election, becoming the first Labor leader to win four consecutive elections. His popularity and ability to maintain party unity were key factors in this electoral success.

Paul Keating challenged Hawke for the Labor leadership and won, forcing Hawke to resign as prime minister. The leadership spill ended Hawke's eight-year tenure and marked a shift to more aggressive economic reform under Keating.
