Talk:Roger Nott

sinecure
The article currently states This position was often a sinecure for retiring members of the ruling party but the government of Robert Menzies offered it to Nott to force his resignation from parliament and cause a by-election. I have tagged this as dubious for 2 reasons. Of the 5 previous administrators, 3 were not politicians (Weddell, Driver and Archer) Abbott was a member of the ruling party while Wise, like Nott was a Labor member. The other issue is that there is no source for the motivation attributed to Menzies. --Find bruce (talk) 23:54, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
