Dogs in pubs in the media

My investigation into whether publicans should be able to allow dogs inside their establishments is attracting media interest.

This week I joined some enthusiastic dog owners in speaking to the Central Sydney newspaper along with the proprietor of the Erskineville Hotel.

According to the research I've been doing, around 75% of respondents think that pub proprietors should be allowed to decide for themselves whether to let dogs in.

I also spoke to Ben Fordham on 2GB on the same subject. You can listen to the segment here (fast forward to 57:44 minutes in).

What do you think? Take our survey to have your say.

FERRIES AT ANNANDALE AND WEST BALMAIN

Imagine hopping on a ferry at Annandale or West Balmain and being in the heart of the city within minutes.

In 2020, we won the campaign for a Glebe ferry. Now, we have the opportunity to connect more of our area to the ferry network. New ferries at Annandale and West Balmain will provide a faster, smarter route into the city without adding to the traffic on our roads.

Both Labor and the Liberals want to build more polluting and destructive tollways across Sydney. But we have costed a comprehensive plan for a world-class public transport system that makes getting around our city fast and easy.

Dear Transport Minister,

New inner west ferry services would provide efficient, fast and environmentally sound travel to and from the area for workers, tourists, students, pensioners and the general public.

I therefore ask that the Government build on the success of the Blackwattle Bay ferry and establish a ferry service at Rozelle Bay for the Annandale area and reinstate the ferry at West Balmain.
