OPINION: It was a better week for the Liberal and National parties in WA, but Labor still looked much more polished as its charges rolled out a heap of fresh election commitments.
ANALYSIS: Labor's plan to buy back the rail freight network adds to multiple moves across the water, roads, health and prison industries to reverse the privatisation of assets and services.
OPINION: On the campaign this week, Roger Cook became psychic-in-chief, Libby Mettam had a shocker, and Shane Love stood in a field. The policy debate focused on regional affairs.
OPINION: Minerva Foods' handling of the closure of both of its WA abattoirs has left communities in the dark, shareholders none-the-wiser, and an industry with major headaches.
OPINION: Chris Ellison's mea culpa may not protect him from future criticism or prosecution, but it seems investors still have faith in Mineral Resources.
ANALYSIS: Isn't the failure of big media just an example of the lifecycle of a business; you make money only until a competitor comes along with a better product and puts you out of business... or you adapt?
ANALYSIS: A bogus poll shouldn't cause the kind of turmoil in WA politics today. But it did, and it has once again raised questions about the Liberal Party's fitness to hold office.
