There is a pressing need for a re-write of the political landscape of Western Australia. For too long Western Australia has been the Cinderella State, taken advantage of by the three ugly sisters and the wicked stepmother of the eastern seaboard.

Federation has resulted in the State being bled dry of assets that are sold at lowest-value prices, principally for the benefit of governments, businesses, and residents of other jurisdictions. Western Australia comprises about one third (2.5 million square kilometers) of the total geographical area of Australia, yet is represented by only 16 (and soon to be reduced to 15) members in the Federal House of Representatives – less than 10% of the total number of 151 lower house seats.

The largest part of the country has little power to influence the democratic process under the current arrangements. Its people are severely disadvantaged by this, despite being the economic powerhouse of Australia.

Western Australia must leave the Federation, stand on its own feet as an independent state free from the shackles of the Federation. Western Australians need to become masters of their own destiny and set their own course to a better future.
