The ACT Greens have condemned NSW Liberal leader Mike Baird's greyhound backflip and vowed to take all action necessary to make sure it doesn't result in dodgy operators moving to the ACT greyhound industry.
"The greyhound racing industry in the ACT is small, exploitative and expensive. We need a plan to wind down this cruel industry, not open up a new market for the NSW gambling lobby to exploit," said spokesperson for animal welfare Caroline Le Couteur.
"Today's back flip has confirmed what we've known all along - you can't trust the Liberals. Not here, not anywhere.
