      Labour is finished just like the Conservatives,I live in the most deprived area since Maggie put the North out of work and i believed Labour would right some wrongs like being bluffed and cheated of HS2 but they haven’t done nothing for the working classes.Sad that my ancestors will be turning in May when
      i don’t vote for Labour for the first time in 45 years.

      I mean, it’s hardly a booming industry. Feel like it’s days are numbered anyhow

      Let’s ban everything! If it upsets even one person – ban it! If you can even imagine one person that might be upset by something – ban it!

      It’s the only way to be sure!

      Just ban it grew up in the „Sport“ Dad had dogs I know most are looked after well but I have seen some scenes glad it dying of death anyway.

      It’s a bit pointless banning it- Wales just did it, even though their last track had closed. Within a decade I doubt there will be any left in the UK.

      Good, this is animal exploitation. It’s banned elsewhere, it’s about time to ban this abhorrent practice thinly veiled as ’sport‘.

      He should go after the horses at the same time. But one enjoyed by working class and the other the the rich. It’s obvious what they will target.

      I’d welcome this. I’m averse to all “sports/entertainment” that involve the use of animals being pushed right to or past their limits and risking death just so some dickhead can place a bet and the owner of the animal can get rich. I’d be more than happy with a ban on greyhound racing and horse racing, especially on the more difficult courses.

      Plenty of other things to be banned before we even get to worry about this.

      The paradox of animal welfare activism. It always results in fewer animals.

      Close the tracks and there will be fewer greyhounds bred. That’s a bit sad.

      Watch this space,the Working Classes of the North are fed up and this country needs change.

      Probably the best time for it. I can’t see any of his follow-up acts banning it once he gets kicked out. Hopefully if it does go ahead, they won’t be cruel enough to reverse it (optimistic…)

      Yorkshire and the Northeast need to join our Scottish Brothers because the South of Watford is alien.
