This is the personal blog of Ian Ker, who was Councillor for the South Ward of the Town of Vincent from 1995 to 2009. I have been a resident of this area since 1985. This blog was originally conceived as a way of letting residents of Vincent know what I have been doing and sharing thoughts on important issues. I can now use it to sound off about things that concern me.

De-Amalgamation Call on Col's Political Doorstep

Click to enlarge
We all know of the de-amalgamations of local governments in Queensland after mergers forced by the previous state government there, but now here's a de-amalgamation call here in WA - from an amalgamated entity created by Col himself less than a year ago.

Okay - it's not a straight reversion to the former state that Synergy wants, but it does seem to be the case that economies of scale aren't all they're cracked up to be by Col, after all.

If Col and Homer get their way, how long before there are calls for de-amalgamating local governments here in Perth?
