‘Disappointing': Why is east coast talent producing WA's next tourism campaign?
WA Premier Roger Cook has taken an extraordinary swipe at the state's largest creative agency after it was revealed 30 per cent of the next major tourism campaign for the state will be produced on the east coast. The Brand Agency has been tasked with producing the next iteration of Tourism WA's Walking on a Dream campaign, with Cook confirming that about 30 per cent of the production would take place outside WA. 'It's pretty disappointing, right? And we know that in WA, we've got some great production crews, and I'm sure that work could have been undertaken in Western Australia.,' he said. 'They've assured us that of that production crew, 70 per cent will be sourced from Western Australia, but I just invite them to reflect on the fact that WA has great production, great people working for creative industries. I can't see a need to export that sort of work.' When asked whether he could reverse the contract, Cook said it had already been struck, and he had only found out about the outsourcing of work on Thursday. Deputy Liberal leader Libby Mettam said the issue showed the government wasn't listening to its own Made in WA message it took to the March election. 'This program was meant to be about selling a message about backing Western Australia, and yet the Premier isn't,' she said. 'It's extraordinary hypocrisy, the fact that they are looking outside WA to sell this important message highlights the fact that the Premier is not listening to his own message and is not backing the expertise that we have here in this state.' Independent Commercial Communications Businesses lead Mark Braddock said on ABC radio on Thursday morning that, by their calculations, five of the last eight major productions from the WA government had been sent over east.

Liberal women's quota petition labelled ‘disgraceful' in party brawl
Senior women in the NSW Liberals are split over proposals to introduce quotas to improve the party's gender representation, with opponents labelling a public petition to garner support for the idea as 'disgraceful' in a private WhatsApp group. Former Liberal vice president Teena McQueen levelled the accusation in the group, according to two sources familiar with its contents who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to party rules banning talking to the media. McQueen declined to comment.
