Help Save Hens From a Lifetime of Cruelty

We only have a few short weeks left to change the lives of millions of animals all around Australia.

For the first time in 15 years, the Australian Animal Welfare Codes and Guidelines are up for review.

It is common practice in Australian poultry farms to confine hens to battery cages for their entire egg-laying lives. They experience extreme cruelty like beak mutilation and this is all just to minimise cost and maximise production of eggs.

You can make a difference by writing to the Australian Animal Welfare Codes and Guidelines review board and telling them you want to free hens from battery cages now.

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.
