TONY COOKE — TRIBUTE
HON ALISON XAMON (North Metropolitan) [10.04 pm]: I rise to recognise the extraordinary life of Tony Cooke. There is no question that Tony Cooke was a Labor man through and through, yet this Green is standing to say what an inspiration he was to me. Tony Cooke was instrumental in drawing me into the union movement, and I can honestly say that it was his leadership in the union movement that led me to want to join it in the first place.
