" please explain why WA love McGowan because I don't get it? "
The pundits , expected McGowan to cave into the unions for pay rises. This didn't happen, he froze public sector wages to an increase per year of a $ 1000.00 dollars. The cops union arced up bigtime. As we speak the teachers union is spending money on radio ads about poor teachers wages. As a state, we must be bloody close to 90ish percent productivity. There are some lagaard businesses, that still rely on cheap foreign labour, instead of using technology, to pick crops and the like, they need to adapt or die. What of coivid, you may ask? Yeah, one bloody case, and he shut the whole bloody place down, not a gladys light shut down, the whole bloody hog. And guess what, after a week, all businesses were open, under McgOwan business has flourished here in the west. Not bad for a labor man. Yes, there are issues with our health system, no question, but all in all,in this pilgrims opinion, McGowan has done a good job. For mine, I think he was too lenient on the gold miners royalty issue, but other than that, I would rate his performance 8.5 out of ten.

The WA labor party lost a fair bit of bark, when the then Treasurer ben Wyatt quit politics, yes, just my opinion, they could have possibly ruled for millennia, if he had taken over from McGowan, who has already stated , he will retire at the next election.
