  • 2021 WA State Election: a Campaign Like No Other – Sandwiched with Tactics from Previous Elections
    2021 WA State Election: A campaign like no other – sandwiched with tactics from previous elections. By Hon Eric Ripper AM 3 March 2021 Most State Governments win a second term. Their senior ministers are still mentally and physically fresh. Festering problems have been blamed on their predecessors. The upside of their agenda has been announced but any downsides, including the implementation problems, are still to emerge. Meanwhile, on the ground their enthusiastic new MPs have been building their personal votes. On the other side, many opposition politicians struggle to make the transition from government and to recover political direction, energy and aggression after their loss. Even before COVID-19, the re-election of the McGowan Government, albeit with a smaller majority, could have been expected. The pandemic has vastly enhanced the Government’s political circumstances in at least three ways. It has created an enormous opportunity to demonstrate competence and leadership and to attract public attention to the performance of the Premier – an opportunity which the Government has fully grasped. Secondly, COVID-19 has provided an alibi for broken promises and disappointed expectations. Finally, it has provided a shield against the politics of emerging issues like public sector fraud or homelessness. Despite the pandemic’s economic impact, many voters are better off than they were in 2017, when the WA economy was in recession. JobKeeper, Federal and State economic stimulus programs, rampaging iron ore prices, a rebound in house prices and the deal on WA’s share of the GST are all contributing. Party campaigns are usually made up of 33 days of policy announcements, which the party attempts to tie into a mutually reinforcing narrative.

  • P336a-352A Mr Mark Mcgowan; Mr Ben Wyatt; Mr Sean L'estrange; Ms Rita Saffioti; Mr Frank Alban; Mr Bill Johnston
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 17 February 2016] p336a-352a Mr Mark McGowan; Mr Ben Wyatt; Mr Sean L'Estrange; Ms Rita Saffioti; Mr Frank Alban; Mr Bill Johnston PREMIER’S STATEMENT Consideration Resumed from 16 February on the following question — That the Premier’s Statement be noted. MR M. McGOWAN (Rockingham — Leader of the Opposition) [12.20 pm]: I rise to speak on the Premier’s Statement. The year 2016 marks the final year before the state election. It is a crucial year for Western Australia. Western Australia is at the crossroads. Our state needs change; it needs a change of direction and Western Australians know it. Western Australia is crying out for a change from the management that this government has provided this state. Our state needs a new government. It needs new ideas and it needs a new direction. We need to get rid of our tired, old government—a government that has created an enormous mess in Western Australia. We need a competent, responsible and honest government in Western Australia. We need a government with a vision for the future—the long-term future of Western Australia—and a team that is prepared to hang in there for the long haul. WA Labor has a team that is ready to govern. I love this state. It has provided me with opportunities beyond my wildest imaginings. I may have come from somewhere else, but I have lived the majority of my life in Western Australia. This is a state of resilient, decent and hardworking people with good values of honesty, compassion and decency.

    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Tuesday, 18 October 2011] p8186c-8206a Mr Mark McGowan; Mr Bill Johnston; Mr Ben Wyatt; Mr Chris Tallentire; Ms Janine Freeman; Mr Bill Marmion PETROLEUM AND GEOTHERMAL ENERGY SAFETY LEVIES BILL 2011 PETROLEUM AND GEOTHERMAL ENERGY SAFETY LEVIES AMENDMENT BILL 2011 Cognate Debate Leave granted for the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Safety Levies Bill 2011 and the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Safety Levies Amendment Bill 2011 to be considered cognately, and for the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Safety Levies Bill 2011 to be the principal bill. Second Reading — Cognate Debate Resumed from 21 September. MR M. McGOWAN (Rockingham) [4.20 pm]: I rise as the lead speaker for the opposition on the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Safety Levies Bill 2011 and the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Safety Levies Amendment Bill 2011. I note at the outset that the Minister for Environment is handling these bills. Considering that the Premier is the Minister for State Development, I would have thought that it would be more appropriate for him to handle these pieces of legislation for the petroleum and geothermal energy industries. Given his role in this state and his position, I would have thought he would come into the chamber and handle this legislation. I thought that the Premier might have been slightly more knowledgeable than the Minister for Environment on the subject. Be that as it may, we will deal with the “B Team” when it comes to this — Mr B.S. Wyatt: “B”? About “Z”! Mr M. McGOWAN: When it comes to this legislation, we will deal with the “B Team” in the person of the Minister for Environment.

    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Wednesday, 16 September 2015] p6507b-6516a Mr Joe Francis; Ms Margaret Quirk EMERGENCY SERVICES LEVY Motion Resumed from 9 September on the following motion moved by Ms M.M. Quirk — That this house condemns the Barnett government for misappropriating funds collected by the emergency services levy for purely administrative purposes instead of for frontline emergency needs, and calls for a system of independent allocation of ESL funds to be implemented as recommended in the first Keelty inquiry. MR J.M. FRANCIS (Jandakot — Minister for Emergency Services) [5.40 pm]: I start by acknowledging members of the opposition who have spoken to this motion; I do not have a list of names with me, but I know the member for Armadale made a contribution last Wednesday before this motion was adjourned. I say from the start that obviously the government does not support the motion brought to the house by the shadow Minister for Emergency Services, the member for Girrawheen, and I will outline the reasons why. Firstly let me say that the wording of the motion — The ACTING SPEAKER (Mr I.M. Britza): Members, if you want to have a conversation, I ask you to leave the chamber, please. Mr J.M. FRANCIS: Firstly let me say that obviously the government will not support this motion and I will outline the reasons why. I do not mean to be provocative by saying this, but I would suggest that the motion is fairly harshly worded and, I would go so far as to say, pretty offensive to both the Fire and Emergency Services Commissioner and the staff of the Department of Fire and Emergency Services, purely through the use of the words “misappropriating funds”.

    PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA INAUGURAL SPEECH Hon Samantha Rowe, MLC (Member for East Metropolitan Region) Legislative Council Address-in-Reply Wednesday, 22 May 2013 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Council Wednesday, 22 May 2013 ____________ ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Motion HON SAMANTHA ROWE (East Metropolitan) [5.36 pm]: Mr President, I stand before you humbled to be part of this great institution, the Parliament of Western Australia, and to be delivering my maiden speech tonight to the Legislative Council. It is both an honour and a privilege to be elected to the thirty-ninth Parliament as a Labor member for the East Metropolitan Region. The East Metropolitan Region is an exciting area to represent. It is a diverse region that covers electorates from Mount Lawley to Armadale and the hills of Kalamunda to Midland. It takes in Perth Airport, Ascot Racecourse and the tourist attraction of the Swan Valley. I would like to acknowledge and congratulate my Labor colleagues in the East Metropolitan Region, Hon Alanna Clohesy and Hon Amber-Jade Sanderson, whom I look forward to working closely with over the next four years. And may I congratulate all new members in this place tonight. The process and procedures of Parliament can seem daunting at first, but I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Mr President, the Clerks, the staff at Parliament and the government Whip for making the new members feel welcome and ensuring our transition is as smooth as possible. I appreciate the professionalism that has been extended to me, and as the Whip for the opposition, I look forward to having a strong working relationship with all of you in the chamber.
