Mr Orange,

I know as much as what has been announced – but there is some truth that she did want to seek pre-selection in West Swan. But Carps wanted his candidate instead.

But I only found out on the Tuesday night via the same media release.

So FC…..Whats the inside word on Jaye Radisich’s departure?

Did the Premiers comments give away some clue as to why she decided to go?

And the Liberal Party Boys Club continues.

An engineer and consultant to the former Premier Richard Court has been preselected to contest the blue ribbon seat of Nedlands for the Liberal Party.

Bill Marmion was the only male candidate out of the four nominees and his preselection was recommended by the party's local branch last night.

And the Big Bogeyman of deregulated trading hours has come up again – watch John Cummins again go into overdrive threatening the end of civilisation if it goes ahead

He’s only against it cos his IGA stores will lose their nice little monoply on extended hours.

And wasn’t the West Australian pushing his barrow incessantly at the time!

Of course they will now publish an apology and acknowledgement that they were wrong – NOT!

I see that the Hanssen construction company got fined $174000 for 21 breaches of AWA’s in Perth today. The charges related to rorting workers on 457 visas.

This is the bloke who was pushing AWA’s and 457 visas and confronting and criticising the unions like fury before the election. Easy to see why…

I live in Sawyers Valley which is in Swan Hills and i think Jaye is great. (i’m not in the ALP up here sorry Frank)

Jaye is definately active in this electorate. I can tell you from my own experience she was highly regarded at both my Rugby Union Club and my daughters primary school P&C in a real way.

I find it noteworthy that as a “right faction” ALP back bencher, that Jaye was the one who forcefully raised the issue of equal opportunity laws for parliament house, which is not normally an issue of choice for the right faction to progress.

I hope Jaye was overwhelmed by all the “Left faction” women, especially those in leadership roles, who came to her support on the issue, although we have not seen or heard any evidence of this yet.

Good Luck Jaye.
