If the heavens shake tonight, Cammo, Wally & Rusty are spinning some cool tunes. My heart goes out to Kylie & Bronte- the loves of his life & to his @abcperth family. @Russell_Woolf I can’t believe you’re gone. I’ll miss you so much my friend.

A wrap up of where the WA Legislative Council count is. Labor has won a clear constitutional majority in the Council though final numbers are yet to be determined. Here's my analysis of how the count is going. antonygreen.com.au/2021-wa-e… #wapol #wavotes

It’s understood tonight’s poll will show Labor leading 66-34 on two party preferred vote. That would be a 10.5% swing to Labor. On a uniform swing, the Liberals would be reduced to just three seats - Cottesloe, Vasse and Churchlands

“How good are the WA Liberals?” Michaelia Cash asked at yesterday’s official campaign launch. Voters will give their answer in 11 days - and Liberals are concerned it’ll be a pretty brutal response. abc.net.au/news/2021-03-02/w…

Bradley Edwards killed Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon but it can’t be proved he killed Sarah Spiers beyond reasonable doubt, Justice Hall has ruled in the Claremont serial killings trial. However it’s likely he killed Sarah also, the judge said #Claremont @abcperth

Clive Palmer's border challenge will be heard by the High Court in November. It has been set down for two days, November 3 and 4. It would likely be some weeks after that until a ruling was announced.
