editHe was Premier 1947-50, and again for a few days in October 1952. He was Leader of the Libs 1945-51. What party did he lead when he was premier in 1952? -- JackofOz (talk) 11:17, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
- Four years later... I'm just expanding the article now to include this. It looks like Hollway was expelled from the Liberals after pushing heavily for an electoral redistribution called the "2 for 1" scheme—two state electorates for each federal division. He formed a splinter group with several other disaffected Liberals (six I think), who formed a group called the Electoral Reform League. Hollway seems to have then raised a motion of no-confidence in McDonald's Country Party government, which was passed with the support of Labor. Hollway then became Premier, but four days later the Governor refused his request for a dissolution of parliament and McDonald was asked for re-form a government. --Canley (talk) 05:13, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
