WA reminds me of the 2001 QLD state election. Hanson split the conservative vote so bad that the ensuing Labor landslide caused the Liberals to almost loose their party status. It's what caused the state LNP merger and gave us Campbell Newman for a term. WA is hosed is what I'm saying.

WA was already hosed, we've have the Libs in power for pretty much a decade.

We're all hoping for a Legislative Council with a makeup that's stacked with even more clownshoes single interest twits than the federal one.

The ABC posted:

Liberal MP Alex Hawke has called for fewer sitting weeks in Federal Parliament to allow MPs to spend more time with their families and less time in Canberra.

Mr Hawke's comments follow Labor frontbencher Kate Ellis's announcement that she will leave politics at the next election so she can spend more time with her young son.

Mr Hawke told Lateline it was time for Federal Parliament to modernise and be more productive.

"There are practices in Parliament which are archaic. We do not need 20 weeks of sittings in a year," he said.

How about instead of this we make you work a full 7 day week with a rotating roster and you only get 24 hours notice of when your next shift is.

Well the rumours are that The Australian have been taking advantage of his brain injury for years by egging him on to do the most racially charged, homophobic poo poo possible.

Don't get me wrong though, a lot of his work since 1995 has been more moderate levels of his recent bullshit.
