The two biggest factions are the Labor Right National Right and the Socialist Left Australia National Left . Each of these factions contains smaller state based factions, such as on the Right the Victorian Labor Unity group and on the Left the Victorian Socialist Left. Members who are not associated with either faction are described as Independents. The two main factions hold factional meetings once a week during Parliamentary sitting weeks. Factional discipline has declined considerably in recent years. During the leadership contest between Kim Beazley and Mark Latham in December 2003, for example, members of both Left and Right were found in the camps of both candidates. Some of the most hostile relations in the Caucus are between members of the same faction the relationship between Beazley and Simon Crean is one example. Factional allegiances in the Caucus tend to be closely related to state political loyalties, and also to trade union affiliations. Large unions such as the Australian Workers Union , the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union and the Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees Association , regard as theirs Members and Senators who formerly held office in those unions, or who have received union support in gaining their preselections, and expect them to act in the union s interests.
