- Liberal Democrat MP Steve Darling has told Sky News that his guide dog has become a celebrity while helping him navigate the Palace of Westminster and his constituency in Devon.
Talking to Sky's Kay Burley, the MP for Torbay said his assistance dog, Jennie, "seems to light up the place" when she assists him in parliament - and constituents at his surgeries in Torquay often ask for selfies.
Mr Darling, who has a rare genetic eye condition and is registered blind, also spoke about the challenges of navigating Westminster with a visual impairment, adding that small adjustments such as improved signage can make a big difference.

She is gorgeous 😍
Guide dogs are amazing a god send for people lucky enough to have one.
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that she’s being stroked while working?
Greetings from South Africa, I'm so thrilled that Jenny is so loved. She is a superb ambassador for Britain and the government. ❤❤❤🐾
Lovely comment ❤
Hard to dislike people that your dog likes. More dogs in politics now.
HERE HERRRRE👏🏻
@@danielwhyatt3278 Oh, yes. Border Collies for President....
Good addition to the space.
edit: maybe stop shouting so much in the chamber while she sleeps.
I like the dog doesn’t know or care about social media 👍🏻
Absolutely loved this. This’s the kinda interview that just puts a smile on your face right through to the very end.☺️😊
Is Jenny one of just two guide dog families which have graced the House with their presence? I recall David Blunkett's Teddy and his successors, but were there any others?
I worked with a blind woman who had a beautiful guide dog. Everyone bought treats for her so her owner had to be careful to say no, because it's not good for her health if everyone is stuffing her with treats. She was a lovely silky dog, like this one in the video.
Wow, that's cool
Shame on his blindness-denying Conservative opponent from two months ago
Oh no…did they say something ridiculous? What is wrong with some people??
A VERYGOODDOGGY indeed❤❤❤
Very nice speeches ❤
There are so many dogs in that chamber - she will feel right at home..
David Blunketts dog was the same for him when he was MP he not to well at the moment
Poor thing , I bet it stunk in there
The dog forced into the chamber of horrors, I think that maybe animal abuse?
The Good Girl of the House of Commons
They should do their constituents a favour and swap seats in the Commons.
Clever mother 53
Clever beaver 76
Busy head
MPs could have pet pandas. They are still not trusted.
Stop using the dog to make yourselves seem like human beings.
if the most intersting thing about this man is his dog torquay is screwed
Plenty of dogs on the Labour backbenches.
Naughty, naughty
I hate dogs, never seen the attraction. Obviously this one does have a purpose to it's human.
Cute little dog.
