This page is for discussions around the State of Western Australia becoming an independent nation, free of the Federation of Australia. #waxit #wexit
This page is about the practical considerations on the current State of Western Australia becoming a free and independent nation. We take no view on what WA should be, other than free - seeing this as something that the people of WA can decide for themselves. The people of Western Australia, some of whom were our great-great-great grandparents voted to join the federation in 1900 on certain condit

Secession - Can a State or person secede from Australia? This video answers two questions from viewers. The first is why Western Australia failed in its attempt to secede from Australia in the 1930s. The second i...

Well worth a read - if a federal government does not suit the needs of the people then which is more important to work for?
Salvaging Secession The Founders understood union as a strategic necessity, not a moral imperative.

While a petition to the West Australian Parliament on the matter of quarantine means nothing, a petition to secede may make a difference.

Signing this petition means precisely nothing. If we are part of Australia we must accept the decision of the High Court - no matter how little we like those decisions. The High Court has used its power time and again to send power and money to Canberra, and we can’t expect this time will be any different.
Of course, that only applies if we are part of Australia.

Is going to get us on our way?
West Australians back 'WA-exit' amid COVID and economic downturn While former foreign minister Julie Bishop and Premier Mark McGowan agreed it would be near impossible, they said locals are fed up with being underappreciated.
When we break away, we should have a Western Australia Day in addition to the regular Australia Day.
Well worth a watch on what is ahead of us.
85 years ago today the people of Western Australia voted strongly to leave the Federation of Australia and become our own country.
The result of that vote was ignored, and we now have even less say on what happens in our own State than we had on that day in 1933.

He's correct - now, let's see if his Federal ALP colleagues agree with him. So far, all of them, as well as all of the ALP candidates for the next Federal election, have agreed the current system is good enough.
Wyatt vows to continue GST fight WA Treasurer Ben Wyatt says it is ludicrous to suggest that an increase in the GST from 34c to 47c is a great win for WA

Today the Commonwealth Grants Commission released the 2018 GST relativities – WA goes from 34 cents to 47 cents; New South Wales from 88 cents to 86 cents; Victoria from 93 cents to 99 cents; Queensland from $1.19 to $1.10; South Australia from $1.44 to $1.48; Tasmania from $1.80 to $1.77; the ACT from $1.19 to $1.18; and the Northern Territory $4.66 to $4.26. Whilst the increase is welcome, this remains an unacceptable outcome for WA.

What are we meant to say - thanks for giving us less than half?
: Sky News has obtained a new carve-up of the $65 billion GST revenue to be announced today. WA is to secure 47 cents for every dollar collected. Victoria will also secure a better deal, up 1.6 per cent.
