In the begining of my post I stated the WA labor government was not without its faults
One of these being the blow outs on major projects
But lets see you have a go at the state labor government for hoarding a surplus instead of speneding it on areas like health education police
Forget the fact they are building a new major hospital in the metro area
forge tthe fact that they have just announced a pay increase to senior teachers taking their pay up to $100K for some in an attempt to retain these teachers in the proffession.
but according to you they should be spending more and maybe you are right.
But the whole arguement here is based on the fact the federal government hoarding a vastly larger surplus instead of providing funding for these area.
