Western Australian Premier Roger Cook is backing Labor’s Georgia Tree in the Secret Harbour by-election, despite her past criticism of Labor’s handling of sexual harassment cases — comparing it to the Catholic Church’s cover-ups. Cook says she’s evolved and won’t tolerate nonsense, while Tree stands by her remarks but acknowledges how much politics and Labor have changed since then. She highlights the party’s growing female leadership as proof of progress. With the seat historically safe for Labor and now vacant after Paul Papalia’s retirement, this by-election could be a pivotal barometer of political mood across the region.
