Interesting piece in yesterday's DT by Anna Caldwell, the paper's chief State Political reporter headed 'Are Shooters on Target? According to that article, the State Nationals, particularly Barilaro, are on a knife's edge.
Go the SFF.

Thats why Barilaro is trying to build a track in his electorate & thats why the welfare department is in Bathurst. Both marginal National seats

Yes, SFF Party have them running scared. Thats what they have done to them i.e. closing down the industry one day to proposing to build a track and put our Integrity Office up at Bathurst another day. Its quite ironic!

Powerful Political Voice.
Other political parties have been knocking on Mr Borsaks door. We couldnt even knock on THEIR door three years ago.
Get with the strength, bank on the SFF Party.

Correct.
They have the CEO in place n it appears to me that theyre going to splurge on regional NSW.

The Greyhound Branch of the SFF Party is unique in that it is moblie. Therefore, we can travel to where SFF Party Members and potential members are located to have meetings and set-up information stalls if possible. All SFF Party Members have a vote at Greyhound Branch Meetings on a given topic.
The President has already been contacted by regional people to help raise funds for our campaign. We are self-funded, but determined to win the balance of power in Parliament. The Coalition knows it. Thats why youll here and read the word regional a lot more over the next year. Itll be like regional infrastructure, regional championships, no regional tracks will close ....
The $30 million for track infrastructure is likely to be for Centres of Excellence and not all tracks. So, after the March 2019 Election what happens to other tracks ? Is your track going to close ? Wheres the prize money increase ? Its different for the Tbreds and were trading better than them yet receiving less.

Theres about 120 years of combined participation, but we dont know everything. We are well led by the Party who has been around since 1995. They know what they need and want, and theyve been directly linked to Our Cause since 2013.
Mr Borsak stated that legislators can change the ICA by way of legislation, but not without the balance of power, just like anything and political party. Simple equation hey ?

Yep. The fight is just beginning.
I will join ASAP and I will encourage others to join too.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
