Daily, ministers of this incompetent government glibly commit multiple sackable offences knowing dear sisterhood - leader cannot use the ultimate sanction against remaining supporters.

The ultimate denouement of these allegedly professional politicians is that they plainly do not care how the electorate views them as they set new comparative records against Whitlam.
Gough at least had the temerity and honour to sack Rex O'Connor and Jim Cairns understanding that it would surely bring him down.

Remember Fraser's "an extraordinary and reprehensible circumstance''

Mungo McCallum is at least right in part in this 2012 article in The Drum [ABC]

''....The trigger Fraser used to force the situation was Whitlam's sacking of a second senior minister, Rex Connor, for the high crime of having misled the parliament; Jim Cairns had already gone. Fraser described this as "an extraordinary and reprehensible circumstance"; extraordinary, certainly, but reprehensible? Looked at another way, Whitlam was enforcing the highest parliamentary standards, when it would have been both simpler and more expedient to brazen it out.'''
