Thanks to the hard McGowan border here in WA, high iron ore prices could see the federal budget better off to the tune of circa $ 15 billion.

Had McGowan succumbed to the irresponsible federal liberal governments call to open borders, this largess, I suggest would be in doubt, as the virus obviously would have filtered through to the mining sector here in WA, just as night follows day.
