The Cost of Living crisis is out of control in WA, with persistent reports outlining how everyday Western Australians are seeing their standard of living being eroded. People are moving back home to live with parents, groceries and mortgage bills leave very little left to spend on discretionary items.

Inflation is out of control, housing is unavailable, services are degraded, infrastructure is delayed and over budget. No wonder we also have a mental health crisis and falling birth rates, we are doing it tough as a society compared to our recent past that most of us can still remember.

The major parties play a game together where they each blame each other for these failures, but they are equally to blame. Irresponsible spending, poor management and the wrong priorities have resulted in the situation we have now, and these are issues which have accumulated over decades.

Every 4 years or so, the major parties try to outdo themselves by promising to spend money to win votes, because for them gaining or retaining power is all that really matters, the repercussions of their short term decisions will not affect them, as they will be out of office by the time the chickens come home to roost.

In WA we see it with our Health system, which has been eroded over time to the point where we have children dying from preventable causes. We have the Metronet project massively over-budget, and it is projected to be a significant liability into the future. There are plans to transition to emissions free power, however the cost of doing so is not able to be explained and is likely to be immense for future generations.

There is a better way to manage our economy, and that is to have longer term plans and not to rush things through in order to boast about how much was achieved, or to virtue signal ourselves out of existence. We need to cut government spending on wasteful policies, we need to reduce immigration significantly and we need to push back on woke ideology which is the enemy of productivity and innovation.

That is why the people of WA should seriously consider voting for Pauline Hanson's One Nation in Western Australia, as we want the best for this state and this nation in the long term, and will point out and criticise short term self-serving actions by the Uniparty, to embarrass them into making the right decisions.
