Labor’s Sue Ellery has challenged the Premier to stand up and name names, after he claimed that some female MP’s wouldn’t have been elected, without a quota.

Colin Barnett said he doesn’t support a quota system to get more women into Parliament, but concedes there needs to be more female MP’s.

However he seems to have picked a fight with Labor women, claiming some wouldn’t have been elected on merit alone.

Ms Ellery told Mornings with Gary Adshead that the Premier should come clean.
