Faceless men

Faceless men is a term from Australian politics. The term is generally used to refer to men and women who exert political influence and are not elected representatives to state, territory or federal legislative bodies, yet are elected representatives to bodies that determine political party policies.[1] However, the political tactic of elected representatives canvassing party members for support on policies varies widely amongst Australian political parties.[2]
