Greyhound racing at Wentworth Park is gone, and I am sad. They were packed to the rafters last night to say goodbye, and it was amazing to see. But it reminded me of the funeral of that bloke you and most others never really had much time for alive, but turned out in droves to […]
The curtain draws down on nearly a century of racing this Friday night at Wentworth Park and the crowd to farewell the spiritual home of NSW greyhound racing is going to be huge, with tickets already well and truly sold out. It will be the last time we ever see big crowds at the Sydney […]

Michael Berkman MP is the Greens MP for the inner city Brisbane seat of Maiwar. Like all greens he is an anti-greyhound racing activist. And like most of his kind he is prepared to tell half truths and deceive you to promote his political cause. Take a look at this video he posted on his […]
Let me tell you more.
