Robyn Lambely says a proposal to put more pokies in pubs will only worsen alcohol issues

 Member for Araluen Robyn Lambley says the Fannie Bay by-election will be a leadership test for both the government and opposition.

Beyond the Berrimah line, Ms Lambley has raised concerns about a proposal to put more pokie machines in pubs in Alice Springs.

She says more gaming machines will only exacerbate alcohol-related issues.
