Bruce Eastick

Bruce Eastick

Bruce Eastick (born 1926) is a former Australian politician. He was a Liberal and Country League and Liberal Party of Australia member of the South Australian House of Assembly from 1970 to 1993, representing the electorate of Light.

Eastick served as the state Opposition Leader from 1972 to 1975, and led the party to the 1973 and 1975 elections, losing both to the Don Dunstan-led Australian Labor Party. His term as leader also saw the recasting of the Liberal and Country League, the state's conservative party since 1932, as the South Australian division of the federal Liberal Party of Australia.

Eastick also served as Speaker in the House of Assembly during his successor's term of power, 1979-82.
