  Lance Barnard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lance Herbert Barnard (1 May 1919 - 6 August 1997), Australian politician, was Deputy Prime Minister of Australia for most of the Labor government of Gough Whitlam.
A Tasmanian by birth, raised in Launceston, Barnard was the son of Claude Barnard, who was a Labor MP from Tasmania 1934-49 and a Minister in the Chifley government.
The loss of Barnard's seat of Bass to the Liberals at the by-election caused by Barnard's resignation was seen by many as the beginning of the end for the Whitlam government.

 Whitlam Speeches - Eulogy For Lance Barnard [August 15, 1997]
How small a part of Lance Barnard's story is told by saying that he was my deputy from February 1967 to June 1974; and how little it conveys about our long association, the most significant partnership of my own political life and, in the wider stream of Australian history, matched only by the Curtin-Chifley partnership.
Lance's role went far beyond that of the loyal deputy, great and rare though the quality of the loyalty he gave undoubtedly was.
Premier Eric Reece, Lance and I, the Leader and Deputy Leader in the Senate, Lionel Murphy and Sam Cohen, and the Labor Leaders of the Opposition in the five State Assemblies met in Hobart to revive the Party's fortunes.

 Division of Bass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For most of its history it has been a marginal seat, changing hands between the Australian Labor Party and the conservative parties - since 1949 the Liberal Party.
Its most notable member has been Lance Barnard, who was Deputy Prime Minister in the Whitlam Labor government.
His resignation in 1975 was followed by Labor's heavy defeat in the Bass by-election, which is seen as the beginning of the end of the Whitlam government.
