Australian Labor Party - do not reflect the views of the party members or its broader support base). Indeed, during the 1980s the party was responsible for the introduction of many economic policies such as privatization of government enterprises, and deregulation of many previously tightly-controlled industries, which are normally the province of conservative governments. The Labor Party has suffered three major splits. In 1915 over the issue of conscription (the then-leader Billy Hughes supported conscription, but the majority of the party did not support it), in 1931 over economic issues revolving around how to handle the depression (split between those who believed in radical-left economic policy such as NSW Premier Jack Lang and Federal Treasurer Ted Theodore, the centrists led by Prime Minister James Scullin and Federal MP Ben Chifley and the fiscal conservatives led.

The Late Late Show - was almost wholly negative. A show that had almost invariably featured in the top three in the TAM ratings (usually at number 1) dropped out of the top ten. Set adjustments were adopted, while over time Kenny's previously notoriously wooden performances changed as he became more relaxed but he still failed to achieve the informality of Byrne. In addition the fractionalisation of the viewership, which had an ever-growing list of alternative channels to watch, hit the new Kenny Late Late, which overall lost one-third of Byrne's viewing numbers. However by Kenny's third season, the show recovered somewhat, climbing high in the TAMs again. Kenny's main strength remained his journalistic background, which allowed him to handle serious issues as an inquiring journalist. His weakeness remained his stiff persona which seemed rigidly stuck.

Mick McCarthy - and was the well-respected captain for his side, "Captain Fantastic". He joined Millwall in March 1990 and became player-manager in 1991, succeeding Bruce Rioch. After relative success at Millwall on February 5, 1996 McCarthy was appointed successor to Jack Charlton as Ireland manager. Millwall went on to be relegated that season under Jimmy Nicholl. Despite failure to qualify for the World Cup of 1998 or the European Championship of 2000 McCarthy held his job. Ireland qualified for the 2002 World Cup in Japan, but their tournament was overshadowed by a very public and bitter spat between McCarthy and the team's star player Roy Keane, who returned home without kicking a ball. The Irish media sided with Keane, and McCarthy was heavily criticised for his handling of the player; this, in spite.
