FAIRFIELD PUB POLL REVEALS CHANGING WESTERN SYDNEY ATTITUDES

An exclusive poll conducted specifically for us since we were the highest bidder has revealed that Western Sydney has not yet been talked about enough by the news.

Dave and Jacinta, a family of battlers, are concerned about Labor's messy reforms of the superannuation taxation policy and compulsory increase, primarily because they do not understand the concept in the first place.

"I mean, I keep hearing about this money, but it's not going in me account each week," says Dave, 29, who works as an unlicensed tradesman in the Western Suburbs, and agreed to speak to us if we bought his round.

Dave is not alone in his doubts. Less than 4 in 10 of the blokes we asked around the bar said that they trusted the current government to deliver on whatever it is they were asked about.

Jacinta is more concerned about welfare for her young family.

"I'm really worried they might cut the baby bonus," she says, in between puffs on her Winfield Blues.

Jacinta is 7 months pregnant with her third child, and at home her son Warnie, 3, and her daughter Fruity-Lexia, 14 months, are placing a deal of pressure on the household budget.

Jacinta plans to invest the payment for the next child into necessary upgrades for transportation.

"Yeah, nah, the Commodore hasn't had a new stereo in yonks."

In Blacktown RSL, voters are more worried about the possibility of Labor ruining the Ashes for the upcoming series in England.

"All I know is that whenever the Coalition is in power, we tend to be better at cricket," said Stuart, 47, whose interest in politics predominantly relies around whether it might influence things he can bet on.

"We were the best in the World under Johnny, and now look what Julia's done to the team."
