Jackie ‘O’ Henderson reveals neighbourhood war with Irish ‘lollipop ladies’ in Bondi

Radio host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has had a series of run-ins with female traffic controllers working outside her multi-million dollar Bondi Beach apartment.

The 45-year-old revealed on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Monday that the stop-go women, who are mostly Irish backpackers, have been blocking her Uber Eats drivers and couriers from entering her private street.

Jackie told her co-host Kyle Sandilands that one traffic controller had told a food delivery driver he couldn’t approach her building, which meant she had to walk up the street to collect her takeaway.

As the radio hosts discussed the so-called lollipop lasses, Jackie asked ‘why are they always Irish?’ before complaining about the situation in Bondi.  

‘They’re paving the road for some reason. It’s crazy to me, but I won’t question the council’s motivations. Only residents are allowed [to drive] on my street and it’s been like that for some time,’ she said.   

‘You know me, I get a lot of Uber Eats and the delivery guys get let in [to my street]. But for some reason, a lot of other people don’t get let in.’

The mother-of-one was recently waiting for a taxi with her daughter, Kitty, when their driver was refused entry to the street.

She was frustrated because they were standing at the entrance of their home and carrying several heavy bags. 

‘I could see the Uber guy up there, and he called me and said he wasn’t allowed into my street. He told the controller he was picking up a resident, pointed at my garage and said that it’s not that far,’ explained Jackie. 

‘[The controller] goes, “No, she can walk up.” I was like, “Are you joking? It’s bloody hot.” I just thought, “Let him in for God’s sake!” It’s not doing any harm, you’re not digging up the road right now. I copped it, walked up and shook my head at her. 

‘She was on the phone talking to a friend and probably didn’t even care.’

Jackie went on to say this wasn’t an isolated incident.

‘It’s happening more and more. Another courier couldn’t get through to my street and [the traffic controller] said he’d have to walk up,’ she continued.

‘I said, “They’re just dropping something off, can’t you just let them through? You let the Uber Eats guy through before. I don’t understand why you’re letting some through and not others.” I’m so sick of these girls, I’m copping grief from them.’

Jackie said she had ‘never had this problem’ before with male traffic controllers, adding: ‘Bring back the boys, I say!’

She said: ‘They just have an attitude about them, you know? The boys don’t, they seem to be doing their job. But the girls, it’s like they deliberately leave you at the stop sign for 20 minutes.’

‘I agree, Sonia,’ replied Jackie. ‘It’s not just my street, it’s in general. I’m waiting a hell of a lot longer than I used to when the guys were in charge.’

Young women are earning up to $130,000 a year with hazard pay and various site allowances as traffic controllers – four times more than some teachers and nurses.
