    Great idea. Pretty good pub grub there too. How much does a name change cost?

    Good cause.
    Absolutely terrific job he's doing

            @barozgain: Don't have the energy to debate, but all I'll say is that these guys have it tough, and it's quite easy to stuff up in their roles. The fact that he hasn't yet, when the others have somehow managed to, makes him stand out.

            Sometimes that's all we need, the Premiers to do their jobs. I'm based in Sydney so I can't say the same for our Premier. So let's appreciate the little things they do, rather than joining the crowd and bagging every single politician for every single thing they do. They're humans too.

            Also, I hope your name is Mark and that you can go enjoy your free meal with a mate.

        Someone from NSW wants to critique how WA has handled things… cough cruise liners….

        • barozgain on 23/06/2020 - 23:17

          In fact I'm a WA resident(couldn't edit account):

          I can see the WA economy was heading towards bad recession well before COVID due to bad economic decisions by current WA government

          Hence why I'm not a fan of Mark

            @barozgain: ""due to bad economic decisions ""

            What? i thought we were very close to having a surplus and being in the green before all this stuff.

            Wyatt and others [treasury] were forecasting a small surplus.

            we were not heading to recession

            It is documented [ check the facts] we were close to being in the green

                @barozgain: The WA economy was already on a downward spiral before he took over from Emperor Colin who left little in the bank. With a lot of the major resource projects switching from construction to operations and low confidence in the housing market, those figures were always going to take a hit.

                Just wondering what bad decisions you think he made that led to the decline in those figures?

              • twjr on 24/06/2020 - 10:40

                @barozgain: How are property prices dropping a negative? The market was massively overinflated due to the mining construction boom. Anyone not involved in the industry got locked out.

                If anyone is to blame it's successive state and federal LNP governments for not planning a transition post the construction boom despite the resource companies broadcasting their intentions. Anyone caught out simply wasn't paying enough attention to stock market releases.

              • Drakesy on 24/06/2020 - 14:28

                @barozgain: But as @Grog said, the state government was doing well with one of the smallest budget deficits pre-covid.

                Housing is largely a national issue, with tax breaks/benefits dealt with at a national level, yes there's stamp duty but the overarching direction comes from the federal tax system.

                The mining boom was short lived and was a sugar hit for the western australian economy and housing market.

          I think Darwin would beg to differ. I know it's not much of a city but it's still a capital.

      Well done Labor and Mark.

      They don't have a Murdoch paper there so he had less toxicity from conservatives I imagine.

      • twjr on 24/06/2020 - 10:24
        +4

        Seven West Media and the local AM talkback are pretty bloody conservative. However, I think even most conservative outlets here are wary of too much criticism given the popularity of McGowen and the state government.

    Great to finally see WA get a premier who just does the biz for them and looks after the population and not just special groups.(Not being born in WA might be the reason he's been able to do the 'biz')

      You uh, been to Perth lately? Prices came way down along with the economy in 2015ish. I was shocked last time I was in Melbourne how expensive the beer was.

        Yep - spend some time there regularly. And lived there until I couldn't afford it any longer.
        Dunno why the prices were ever so high.
        Perth prices - yeah nah.
        Melbourne prices > Sydney. It's a premium product.

      • hotphil on 24/06/2020 - 08:10

      Not sure if you saw but 2018 saw the steak and pint wars which saw multiple pubs in subiaco and surrounds offering $5 steaks and $3.50 pints. It's not that cheap now but $15 for a pint and steak and chips is fairly common
