My fellow peers hell bent on stopping this Bill need to wake up and smell the coffee.

🚨 British racing faces an unprecedented threat – a tax raid which could see it lose £66 million a year and tip it into irreversible decline. We need to stop the racing tax before it's too late.

What a fantastic video. Great work @arenaracingco ! This brilliantly captures what 85k people working in racing across the UK know about the positive impact horses and racing have on our country.
This video, by Arena Racing Company, highlights the horse racing industry's social impact and the employment it generates within society.

Very sad news. David was a huge racing fan, advocate for the sport & a good friend. Despite our different political backgrounds, I really enjoyed working with him on the Lords Digital committee and talking about racing whenever we could. He will be much missed by many.
🤝 Our thanks to @SallyJameson for highlighting the potential impact on British racing and her Doncaster constituency of the Treasury's gambling tax harmonisation proposals.
We look forward to further discussions with @hmtreasury.

Michael was hugely popular with his weighing room colleagues both in Ireland and the UK and our thoughts are with them, his family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time.
British horse racing is the best in the world, but its funding model is broken. Securing a levy deal in racing’s favour and setting out a plan to significantly increase prize money are essential to the industry’s future success.
Sending all love and support to @JoeSaumare90813 and his family. On behalf of everyone in the Jockey Club thank you Joe for all you have done for racing. You have always put the sport you love first and today is no different. You will be sorely missed!
Horse racing is a £4.1 billion British success story, and derives much of its income from responsible gambling. Today I asked the Secretary of State if she will reform the Betting Levy and disproportionate affordability checks.
