I don’t imagine theres much room in the WA electorate to vote further to the ‘left’ than Labor. But still, a couple more Greens, or even Teals, could really help push the WA government faster down the path they’re already slow walking down.
Also gas companies pay shit-all royalties for what they’re getting, so why do them any favours!? I don’t understand why they have such a large presence in policy decisions in this state.
We are also a “one paper” state. Guess who owns that media and what pies they have their fingers in.
And the Labor party have been so freakin cosy with Stokes. I increasingly get the old ‘WA inc’ vibes from both major parties here. Roll on thrid party, and independents dilution.
