Senedd members voted to bring in the ban by 39 votes to 10, with two MSs abstaining. Under the legislation the earliest greyhound racing would be banned is April 2027 and the latest April 2030. There is only one track in Wales - Valley Greyhounds in Ystrad Mynach, Caerphilly county.

I work in a vets in the North East of England and we have many trainers using our practice. I am not a medical person but I have only seen dogs that have been treated exceedingly well and are in beautiful condition.  Like everything there will be a small minority of people who aren't treating their dogs in the right way but I have not seen this. The trainers are passionate about racing and spend a lot of money on their dogs. I would happily take on a greyhound that has been in their care as know it has been treated better than most pets. The amount of paperwork that has to be completed when anything happens to a  greyhound stops any cruelty plus there is a vet at every race.

Approximately 23% of children in Scotland—roughly 240,000—were living in relative poverty after housing costs in 2021-24, a figure that has remained largely stable over the last decade.

Kinda reminds me of the saddest song ever written...gets me every time this one...Old Shep.

As the years fast did roll
Old Shep, he grew old
His eyes were fast growing dim
And one day the doctor
Looked at me and said
"I can do no more for him, Jim"

With hands that were trembling
I picked up my gun
And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
I just couldn't do it
I wanted to run
I wish they would shoot me instead

He came to my side
And he looked up at me
And laid his old head on my knee
I had struck the best friend
That a man ever had
I cried so I scarcely could see

Old Shep, he has gone
Where the good doggies go
And no more with old Shep will I roam
But if dogs have a heaven
There's one thing I know
Old Shep has a wonderful home

Animal welfare groups like Dogs Trust Ireland and the ISPCA have consistently highlighted 'wastage'.

The thousands of dogs that disappear from the system every year. Greyhounds are legally classified as "agricultural animals" rather than pets in Ireland, they have historically lacked the same legal protections as other dog breeds. Not sure if that's still the case, but it was. Presume the Dale programme must be referring to the RTE documentary from a few years back.

When you think of all the cruel things that happen in the world and in this nation in particular, you would think banning greyhound racing, which actually gives pleasure to many, would be way down the agenda but I guess it is an easy target much easier than getting rid of drug problems, domestic violence and so much more.

Yes. Entirely understandable people want to address animal welfare, but, yea, it does feel like a relatively easy issue for politicians to rally around compared to the more pressing social problems, of which we’re all very aware. It’s the kind of stance that lets them signal ‘compassion’ and ‘responsibility’ without wading into the tougher, more divisive challenges that are out there.

Throw in the obligatory pity tearjerking photos and videos, and hey, we're on a winner here guys.

Paul Brignal has owned Thornton Stadium since 2002 but closed the track last year, citing concerns about the bill.
He told BBC Scotland News it was "beyond belief" that he government had changed its mind and called the ban a "huge waste of taxpayers money".
Brignal said that six serious injuries had been recorded at Thornton between 2022 and 2025, including one dog that was put down after suffering a broken leg.
He predicted that with his track shut, greyhound racing would die out in Scotland.
Mark Bird, chief executive of the Greyhound Board of Great Britain, said he was "astounded" that MSPs would back a ban.
"The bill is unevidenced, illogical and will help no-one in Scotland - least of all greyhounds," he said.
Bird added: "In the final weeks before an important election, Scottish constituents will find it simply unbelievable that their representatives have wasted hours of precious parliamentary time introducing a law to ban something that does not even exist in their nation and which will have no impact at all on animal welfare."

But Conservative MSP Finlay Carson said the bill was a "waste of precious parliamentary time" that would not improve the safety of any dogs, calling it "jester politics" and "virtue-signalling legislation".
He said licensing would improve the welfare of dogs, but that option had not been considered by Holyrood.
The Tory also noted that the Welsh ban was already facing a legal challenge.
Labour's Rhoda Grant said animal welfare should be reformed, but that this bill would not deliver the changes needed.
She told MSPs that a new track would not have received planning permission, adding it "beggars belief" parliament found time to debate a bill that does "little or nothing" for greyhound safety.
