Even though he’s really busy, if they’ve got an assembly item or if they’re getting a merit certificate at school, he’s always there.”Far from feeling her husband’s demanding schedule as Opposition Leader disadvantages the children, she believes it only adds to their development.“I think it adds to their lives, rather than takes away, to really have a belief to want to do what he wants to do and to get there and see the hard work is a good thing. I think it’s great to be able to say I’m a mum.’’From the moment Mr McGowan was approached to take over the party leadership in January last year, his wife agreed to put her teaching career on hold and focus on their home life.But he doesn’t get out of household chores that easily.

I was single. I think it’s wonderful. He does remember flowers – he’s great like that.“And as a father, I couldn’t ask for a better dad. He always says yes – and off he goes.
It seems like yesterday that all this happened.’’Fast-forward two decades and the couple are happily married with three children, Samuel, 9, Alexander, 7, and Amelia, 3.“He’s wonderful.

Sarah, a struggling university student, was earning extra cash by helping to man a polling booth at the local school.Mark, a member of the WA Labor Party, was acting as a scrutineer to watch over the counting of the votes.Amid the frantic shuffling of papers and nervous chatter, Sarah, also a Labor supporter, was keen to find out how the supposedly “unwinnable” election was shaping up.She spotted a young man with a friendly face, wearing a scrutineer badge. Paul Keating, contesting his first federal election since taking over from Labor’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Bob Hawke, managed to woo the nation’s voters and snatch victory from the John Hewson-led Liberals.And within days of that brief conversation in the polling booth, the Labor scrutineer was on a wooing mission of his own. 317k Followers, 1,177 Following, 1,160 Posts - See Instagram photos and videos from Sarah Miller (@sarahmillertattoo) He turned up on the doorstep, clutching a bunch of flowers.“He knocked on the door and I was like, ‘Hello’, and he said, ‘Would you like to go to coffee?’,” Sarah recalls. He does wash and iron – he’s more than capable of doing it.’’Those home skills – as well as his hardworking nature and his “honest intentions’’ – make him fit to lead the nation’s economic powerhouse as WA’s Premier, Mrs McGowan says.“Obviously people will make their own minds up and I know Mark and, regardless of his policies, I think that he is a good person who has good values,’’ she says.
