At that time, only Edwin Corboy had been elected at a younger age, but that record has since been broken by Wyatt Roy.Born in Adelaide, Jones studied at the University of Adelaide and was working as a travel officer when he gained Liberal and Country League (LCL) preselection for the apparently safe Labor seat of Adelaide at the landslide 1966 federal election. Much to the surprise of everyone except Jones, he won the seat, receiving a 10 percent two-party preferred swing to finish with 52.8 percent of the vote. Extremely conservative even by general LCL standards, Jones ruffled feathers for his views, including his belief that alcohol was the devil's urine and claimed that "half the MPs in Parliament are drunk half the time". While he was forced to publicly apologise for these remarks, Jones caused further controversy by releasing a book, entitled Andrew Jones M.H.R by Himself, in which he made further comments on the "wickedness" of parliament, as well as a spoken word record. The record, Shadow Valley and Iron Triangles, described by Jones as "anti-Communist", by his supporters as "a reaction against the spate of sick immoral and depraved pseudo-folk music which pours from the radio" and by detractors as "awful" or "pure jingoism", was a local Adelaide hit for Jones, who donated the proceeds to charity. It included such lines like "When you hear the anthem lift up your head, remember our past, see our glorious future and let your voice sing out, and friend, thank God you're free." At least one Adelaide radio announcer refused to play the song.Jones lost his seat at the 1969 election, suffering a 14.3 percent two-party swing to finish with 38.7 percent of the vote. Following the loss, Jones's reasoning to Prime Minister John Gorton for his defeat, "not even Jesus Christ could have held Adelaide", quickly entered Australian political folklore.
