Country Progressive Party

Country Progressive Party

The Country Progressive Party was a splinter group from the Victorian branch of the Australian Country Party active in the late 1920s. It was formed by federal MP Percy Stewart and future Victorian Premier Albert Dunstan. It was formed in protest over protection of sitting members and state governments. The Country Progressives reunited with the main party in 1930.[1]
