I'm the type who bears a grudge, remembering the ignominious days of WA Inc.
And yet past members of WA Inc. (including a gaol bird) are again strutting the halls of WA parliament, colluding with Labor politicians, doing deals and spreading their propaganda of self-interest in the most furtive ways.
Of course that will all be temporarily cleaned up prior to the next election!
And the WA opposition are being led by "Dad's Army" which have failed abysmally to address the issue which everyone is now discussing - climate change! This issue no longer remains the domain of the left loonies and the WA Liberals' indifference indicates that they continue to live in la la land! In addition the disloyalty displayed to each other and the party leaks to media over the past year, is another hindrance preventing this party from regaining government in the near future.
Then you have on both sides, ministers holding portfolios of which they know zilch. Of course they insist that this is not necessary since they have their "advisors"!
And Mr Ripper the "rip off" treasurer, the highest taxing treasurer WA has had with no relief in sight.
By joves, the Greens are looking more attractive each day! I'll even consider giving Dan the dustman my vote at the next election. Morals and ethics could not degenerate much further!
