A shame the article is biased by only giving Barnett's views. The media in this country is far too right wing.

Libs were second last instead of last on my ballot for the first time!!!

Reading the comments on the Australian.  It's pretty odd that they seem to disregard the poor statistics that Barnett lead for 2 cycles and claim labor will do worst.  It does remind one of "doing the same thing and expecting a different result" as a definition of insanity.  Clear trending downwards on economic indicators but believe libs are doing a good job?

Labor can be as bad as they like if they win Government in WA.. All they have to do use blame the Libs.  Seems to work when they blame Labor


Some Three word Slogans:

Inherited Massive Debt
Hidden Government Spending
Ministerial Portfolio Incompetence
Liberals wasted Boom
Debt and Deficit
Jobs and Growth


Stacks more.

Ain't it wonderful. Will be even better when this corrupt mob get turfed in NSW.

You should pass the hat around your local Muslim community for making a ban on any further Muslim immigration less likely.

Nothing to do with immigration.

Every election is the same : The ecstatic expectation that a New Age of Plenty is about to be introduced, and that every social problem is about to be solved with the new party being elected - only to see this Dreamtime fantasy crumble into dust after a few short weeks and months.

don't be such a dummy Herb, no one thinks this will solve all thew social problems

they think it will solve JUST ONE PROBLEM ... the Barnett government

Polling booths have just closed.

Set for a Labor victory, with a 14 seat gain.

Pauline will win ZERO seats.

Life is good.

WA went into a dive? they were in debt in the middle of the boom with this incompetent government. They were being thrown money left, right and centre, and still they couldn't help themselves

That reminds me of something interesting I read today - Turnbull was threatening to withhold funding from WA if the new Labor government cancelled certain Liberal infrastructure projects. McGowan's calling Tunrbull's bluff because if that happens, McGowan will be sure to remind the voters of this every chance he gets and there will be five marginal Liberal federal seats in danger in WA.

Ditto.

I predicted 35 seats, and a victory speech at 9pm.

I got pretty close   

Bam wrote on Mar 11^th, 2017 at 10:55pm:


Exactly as I predicted.

Whoo-hoo. Labor's Cassie Rowe has won the seat of Belmont from Liberal Glenys Godfrey. Cassie took the time to promptly reply to an email I sent her a couple of weeks ago where I raised a few issues about the cost of living for people on lower incomes like myself. She (or someone on her behalf) was doorknocking that day and I wasn't home at the time.

I really think Glenys Godfrey (who is also a former Mayor of Belmont) shot herself in the foot with her ongoing 'crusade' to get rid of a lot of public housing in the area.  She claims there is too much public housing here compared with other suburbs and she wanted a 'balance'.

She even sent a letter to every public housing tenant in Belmont/Rivervale trying to explain her reasons. Yep, I bet that had the desired effect. NOT!

Guess who all the public housing tenants probably didn't vote for today?

And, Mr. Barnett - when you pee off nearly the entire State with increased charges... electricity, gas, water, car registrations, putting up the qualifying age for the WA Seniors Card, not increasing income limits for public housing tenants/people on the waiting list for nearly 11 years while you spent enormous amounts of money on things like a sports stadium and Elizabeth Quay then you really shouldn't be surprised when you get tossed out of government like you were today.

Kim Beazley in an interview the other day predicted that the economic benefits of the recent upsurge in mineral prices will be flowing through to WA society around 2-3 years from now.

If true, this is a particularly fortuitous election win for Labor.

Any State government that allows so much of its natural resources to be in the private possession of a fat sheila doesn't deserve anything other than ridicule.

And not only her... Look at the scare campaign the big miners launched against the state (federal and local) to stop a tax increase on metals sales... Virtually blackmailing their own fellow Australians via a threat to shut down mines and put people out of work.

How do they sleep at night?

Lord Herbert wrote on Mar 12^th, 2017 at 7:54pm:

Well, we're wearing the same boondoggles on this one...

But don't just focus on WA's answer to the 'Ewing' family... They all used their financial power against Australians.
