The Alliance, sometimes known as the Liberal–Residents Rally Alliance, was a political alliance between the Liberal Party, Residents Rally and Independents Group in the Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly.
The Alliance was formed in December 1989 after a no-confidence motion against the sitting Labor Party government saw Liberal leader Trevor Kaine take power. However, the agreement dissolved less than two years later when the Rally was sacked from the Alliance, subsequently voting with Labor to topple the Kaine government in June 1991.
