Delighted that Wales has become the first UK nation to ban greyhound racing.

A huge tribute to the charities, campaigners and activists behind #CutTheChase coalition.

Greyhound racing will now be phased out by 2030, ending a practice that caused suffering for the benefit of the gambling industry.

Great news from Wales! 🐕 Greyhound racing is officially banned!

Will I stop talking about this? No probably not.

You cannot be liberal and support bloodsports.

"But Becca it isn't a bloodsport as the prey isn't real"

They're the prey.

Delighted that the Senedd has voted to pass the first stage of a bill to ban greyhound racing in Wales.

It's the result of years of hard work by charities, animal welfare groups, & campaigners. We must now see the legislation through so Wales puts animal welfare before gambling profits #CutTheChase

Greyhound racing is state-funded misery.
Dogs bred for the gambling industry and treated as disposable “product” 😔
