- We need your support to fight the ban. Please support licenceme.org.uk in this fight #xlbullyban #stopbsl #xlbullyI am very pleased to say that having been instructed to challenge the #xlbully ban we have just served on @theresecoffey and her Department a Pre Action Protocol in Judicial Review which launches the legal challenge. Such an important case. #dogs Please support us. @25BedfordRow
- 'The public must be protected, but the Goverment's decision doesn't protect them. The Dangerous Dog Act of 1991 didn't stop bites and fatalities - in fact there are more fatalities and bites now than then' - by @John_Cooper_QC #dogs #xlbullyban #BSL

00:00 - A quick update - we are nearly there ! We plan to submit tomorrow and have a live broadcast tomorrow evening so that the legal team can explain what happens next and answer questions.
- We need your help - tinyurl.com/xlbullycount The government have drastically under-estimated how many dogs will be affected by the XL Bully ban. We have a limited window to collect this information before we need to submit it to the Court. #xlbullyban
- Barrister @John_Cooper_QC explains why the Dangerous Dog Act is not fit for purpose. John addressed a live audience of over 1,300 concerned dog owners last night and spoke about the legal action the community is taking. #xlbully
