Ago pab good Cowboy game gun who are pay fang..

i'm just down the road in Merriwa,the ground literally bubbles with CSG tremors,above ground this kind of dumb is the norm all around here,its Nats heartland but Aunty Pauline got a huge swing up here in the last by-election,its also Anglican=heartless,this makes total sense🤮

I wanted to buy some art pens this week. I could go to Officeworks to buy them but not my local art shop. End segregation now👍

Sounds like a cool place for a beer. I will definitely drop in next I am in Singleton. Yes to vaccination, but no to segregation.

Uneducated Facebook keyboard warriors lol

At least people would know where all the morons would be at any given time. Now where will they go?

what led these people to believe australia was ever built on the principles of freedom? do they forget we are an oppressive colony of britain?

Are they WANTING to make the pandemic worse?

This puts a better perspective on how a 'pub test' is an absolutely ridiculous term for what middle Australians are thinking.

Nice

Let it stay shut.

Not fit to hold a liquor licence, boycott needed.

Close them down tell Dec 1st, imposing there rights that kill others right to live.

Remove the liquor license publican proven to be irresponsible!

I guess you don't need a liquor licence to run a pub in Singlet-ton?
