I'm not a fan of our current State Government, but Ido  believe in giving credit where credit is due and I was delighted to see the above headline in today's paper.It's not a huge offer,  but it's positive, it's proactive and it  makes me feel proud to be a Waussie.

Really? If you look again, you'll see the thread title is "Thank You Mr Barnett."

Correct me if I'm wrong (and I often am) , but doesn't She-el mean Colin Barnett the Premier of WA?

New South Wales Premier Mike Baird has left open the possibility of Australia accepting more than 10,000 extra Syrian refugees.
