Political disputes and plans shake Western politics

A critical look at electoral reform proposals in Western Australia reveals battles over redistribution, commissions, and boundaries. The piece notes Wilson's plan for a non-political boundary commission with broad powers, the Country Party's opposition, and the impact on metropolitan and rural representation amid population shifts. It also covers parliamentary sparring, scathing insults between opponents, and debates over the trans Australian railway and conscription.
