Thank you Senator Chris Andrews #stopthegenocide Greyhound Racing Ireland has been a law unto itself for a long time now. Entirely self-regulating. And if we know anything in this country, it's that self-regulation doesn't work. Let's hope your efforts will bear fruit.

Senator Chris Andrews #stopthegenocide Ban Blood Sports Greyhound Action Ireland GreyhoundAwarensCork Ann Graves TD John Brady TD Disgraceful! Last week a child stood outside Leinster House for 50 hours to highlight the poor state of disability services due to lack of funding. Yet there seems to be no shortage of money for this horror show.

In 2024, 2 care homes received €291,000 from Greyhound Racing Ireland and rehomed just 36 dogs (averaging €8,083 per dog) kfmradio.com/news/localnews… #BanGreyhoundRacing

And still we wait to hear what the two greyhound care homed spent nearly half a million on in 2023/24. Then the members of the greyhound board don't seem to be answerable to anyone. The money will keep pouring in regardless of how they treat dogs or taxpayers' hard-earned cash.

The abuse of taxpayers' money just goes on and on. Two first prizes totalling €40,000 paid out after the original winner tests + for drugs. And once again Greyhound Racing lreland hides behind a wall of silence. Senator Chris Andrews #stopthegenocide More questions for PAC! irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4164…

More abuse of taxpayers' money. And once again Greyhound Racing lreland stay safely wrapped up in their cocoon of self-regulation. This needs to be probed by the PAC as well as what almost half a million euro was spent on by 2 care homes to home 65 dogs in 2023/24. #ThisRunsDeep

Track deaths are just the tip of the iceberg. Thousands of young dogs are killed every year because they can't run fast enough. Public funding of greyhound racing = state-sponsored cruelty to animals! #ThisRunsDeep #YouBetTheyDie #BehindTheTrack independent.ie/regionals/lime…

We still don't know whether a semi-state body - Greyhound Racing lreland - knew that serious welfare issues existed at one of their licensed kennels and failed to act for six months. We need Martin Heydon to clear this up. Not cover it up! #ThisRunsDeep irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4163…

Greyhound racing took place in Limerick this afternoon from 14.26 - 17.46 in temps of 24°C! Would you bring your dog out in that heat and have it run at breakneck speeds? Of course not. Just one more example of racing greyhound welfare being sacrificed to produce betting product.

Thank you Senator Chris Andrews #stopthegenocide for highlighting this barbarity. Surgical AI banned for all breeds of dogs, except greyhounds. This government MUST DO the right thing and include greyhounds in the ban. NOW! #ThisRunsDeep Martin Heydon Micheál Martin Simon Harris TD

85% of the greyhounds raced in Britain are lrish-born dogs. There's no escaping the abuse, it would seem. #ThisRunsDeep #togetherwewin #BehindTheTrack

Greyhound Racing Ireland is HIDING video footage of Race 7 at Shelbourne Park track on Saturday (21 June 2025). Greyhound Razldazl Edward was lame and "did not finish". Don't go greyhound racing. #Ireland #BanGreyhoundRacing

The lrish taxpayer continues to pay to provide betting product for British betting companies. No wonder the latter are happy out. We pay to provide 85% of the greyhounds raced in the UK too. This madness has to end. Martin Heydon #ThisRunsDeep sisracing.tv/sis-greyhound-…
