Jones power plays didn’t always work out for him

We will always have the picture of Alan Jones dressed, cosplay-style, as a Parthenon guard during his attempt to be elected as the MP for the then seat of Earlwood. Surprisingly, this image did not appeal to Earlwood’s many Greek-Australian voters, or the Anglo ones either, as in a pro-Liberal landslide election, Earlwood was the only seat where the Liberal vote went down.
