	George Reid
		George Reid was a cartoonist's delight, although Deakin claimed that even a cartoonist could not do justice to his "immense, unwieldy, jelly-like stomach always threatening to break his waistband, his little legs apparently bowed beneath its weight, [and] his thick neck rising behind his ears rounding to his many-folded chin".
		Deakin later claimed that Reid, as a parliamentarian, was "inordinately vain and resolutely selfish, a consummate tactician even more cunning [than Henry Parkes] and if anything exceeding him in violence and variety of vituperation".
		But it was a flimsy alliance because Reid had no firm policy apart from waving the anti-socialist banner and securing the passage of legislation already before the House.

		And, on the other hand, the very fact that official politics is lurching in such unpredictable and reckless ways to the right has the potential to stir millions of people to throw themselves into the political fray, and potentially raises profound new questions among them about what future we need to be fighting for together.
		For one thing, Reid and his Democrats have proven to be little of a real "check on their power"!
