Yesterday, The West Australian published my views on why Mark McGowan should be doing a better job at managing WA’s economic prosperity - why after a GST windfall and high iron ore royalties has WA’s Labor Premier been putting up taxes and charges?

I am delighted to wish Perth’s Indian Community a Happy Holi! Holi or the ‘Festival of Colours’, is a vibrant Hindu festivity which celebrates the beginning of spring and the victory over evil with the exchange of gifts, music and dancing. Happy Holi!

We are on the Final Countdown to Brexit 🇬🇧 . Tomorrow morning at 7am WST, the UK will exit the European Union. Whatever your views, this will be a historic global event. For me personally and as a self proclaimed Anglophile, I am excited for Britain!

It was great to announce $1 million in CCTV upgrades to the Kiara Police Station. The $1 million boost to CCTV in the City of Swan highlights the Scott Morrison (ScoMo) Coalition Government’s and my commitment towards making our streets safer 👮🏻‍♀️ 🚔 🎥

I was delighted to hit the button 🖲 on the soft launch 🚀 of Kingsway Splash, a dinosaur-themed splash pad at Kingsway Aquatic Play Centre 🦕. Kingsway Splash 💦 was made possible by the Coalition Government’s $300K commitment to promoting healthy and vibrant communities.
