Roger Cook took charge of WA at a time of change post-Covid and is now aiming to lead WA Labor to a third term in office.

He was sworn in as Premier on 8 June 2023, promising to undertake the job with gratitude, care and respect and to make Western Australia an even better place.21 months later, his leadership will be put to the ultimate test at the ballot box.Labor holds 53 of the 59 seats in the Legislative Assembly.An election win would make it the first third-term Labor Government in WA since 1989.Mr Cook has put his ambition to turn the State into a global powerhouse for clean energy at the centre of his re-election pitch, declaring the economy must diversify to fulfil the potential to secure resource wealth for future generations.But a looming energy shortfall, skills shortages and rising costs mean time is running out to turn that dream into reality, in time to lead the world’s push towards net zero.A long-distance runner himself, Roger Cook is now sprinting towards the finish line to convince voters to back his plan when WA goes to the polls on March 8, 2025.
