The West Live: Opposition Leader Liza Harvey weighs in on WA's hard border, plans to reopen

Opposition Leader Liza Harvey will join The West Live this morning to weigh in on WA's hard border and the State Government's plan for reopening it.

The West Australian today revealed that Premier Mark McGowan set to relax WA’s hard border to allow interstate travel — except to NSW and Victoria.

The Premier will chair a meeting of the State Disaster Council this morning, where updated health advice about a travel bubble with States that have no community spread will be considered.

Afterwards, Mark McGowan is expected to announce how and when the State will allow interstate travel.

Ms Harvey, who has called for travel bubbles with low-risk jurisdictions since June, is expected to discuss health precautions with podcast host Jenna Clarke.

Former South Australian premier Jay Weatherill will also join the show to discuss borders but also his work as the chief executive of Andrew "Twiggy" Forrest's philanthropic Minderoo Foundation’s Thrive by Five initiative.

To dissect what the border plans could mean for WA and the Premier's public image, 7NEWS State Political Editor Geof Parry will join Clarke for his weekly wrap up.

Better Homes and Gardens landscape design expert and the Sunday Times columnist Charlie Albone will discuss gardening with children in his Friday segment ‘Get Into The Garden’.

Sunrise Perth correspondent Matt Tinney will also bring us up to date on the latest news headlines.
