GBGB contacts MPs over latest 'inaccurate' welfare claims

GBGB contacts MPs over latest 'inaccurate' welfare claims
GBGB CEO Mark Bird: All MPs written to over welfare claims

THE GBGB has responded to the latest claims about greyhound racing published by Grey2kUSA/Worldwide in conjunction with the League Against Cruel Sports which it says “is full of inaccuracies."

Although not making official public comment on the matter, GBGB CEO Mark Bird told the Racing Post: “Much of their report is based on incorrect analysis, distortion of facts and cherry-picking of rare cases where regulation has actually uncovered instances of poor animal welfare and mistreatment - almost all of which took place at least a decade ago.

“We have written to MPs to highlight this corruption of the truth by both Grey2K and LACS and they should consider their report tainted in the way in which it has been presented."
