Graham Donald Kierath (born 21 July 1950) is a former Australian politician who served 11 years in the Parliament of Western Australia.
After the election of Richard Court as Western Australian Premier in 1993, Kierath was appointed as Minister for Labour Relations.
Those changes attracted fierce criticism from the labour and union movements, with stickers being produced reading "Kierath's a Wanker".
While the regulations were criticised by the hotel industry, the Australian Medical Association recognised him with the "AMA President's Award".
[5][6] Following his unexpected defeat at the 2001 election, after a 10.16% swing against him, Kierath remained closely involved with the WA Liberal Party and retained his political ambitions.
