This doesn't promote inclusivity, it doesn't bring the different ethnicities closer together, it drives us further apart. It can only cause ill feeling. We have 2 dogs and we like to think we are responsible owners. If there are people around who are nervous of dogs we keep them on the lead; if there are dog owners whose dogs are running free, we ket ours off. Banning dogs because it's better for race relations, utter garbage. It's almost as if they are trying to generate bad feeling between whites and non whites? Almost as if they are looking for a race war. This is so barmy even Monty Python wouldn't have writen it. PS, what about those BAME people who are also dog owners? [Post edited 16 Nov 9:59]

Ivecsaud,blacks people are noticeably less willing to engage with dogs I was on a bus recently and had my dog at my feet . Across me was a black woman and her offspring . When I first got to my seat,the lad screamed so much the driver stopped the bus . Hysterical over the most amenable dog possible . Banning dogs … Ban life instead | |

Blacks Asians and Oriental people can be wary around dogs but there are quite a few white kids around here who are also wary. On the other hand, in our local park there are Black and Asian dog owners and I have spoken with one Oriental man who had 2 dogs. Lets face it, they need to ban dogs because owning one is clearly racist! To hell with the blind, the police sniffer dogs, any helper dog including those in the forces who have saved many lives, they are all racist. It's just too bizarre and ridiculous. Who decides which areas are to be dog free and how large an area too? Pound to a pinch it'll be areas most popular with dog walkers. | | | |

It’s a worry Cat I’m starting to lose my grip on the world ,seriously. I cannot understand the thinking of others It might be a form of guilt . I believe it all harks back to our colonial days and how we cannot free ourselves of it. It is we who are the slaves now | |

I walk through Singleton Park most days. There are plenty of people of diverse ethnic backgrounds around, mainly students going to the university campus, but I cannot recall ever seeing a black dog walker. I did see something unusual at the entrance to the botanical gardens last week in the form of a man of Middle Eastern appearance shouting in Arabic at the top of his voice into his mobile at somebody who had incurred his ire. He was oblivious to the reaction of a nearby dogwalker, who didn't look very happy that the tranquil scene was being disturbed. | | | |
They came for our libraries on 11:48 - Nov 16 with 1168 views | Scotia | Surprise, surprise. This story originated in The Telegraph and is nothing more than misrepresented click bait. There is no link between proposed dog free areas and racism in the report. Personally I'm more disappointed that such a pointless report has been commissioned. What a waste of money. It'll never be acted upon. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Absolutely clickbait. It’ll bridge the gap between ‘their trying to cancel Christmas’ season and ‘when’s International Men’s Day?’ in the spring. | | | |

I don’t like dogs and neither do my wife and kids. I’d be happy with the introduction of dog free zones in some areas as I’m sick of people not cleaning up after their dogs @@@@ everywhere, but then again many dog owners are responsible so why should they be punished.

https://www.gov.wales/anti-racist-wales-evidence-report-climate-cymru-bame-html This is the actual report. If you search the pdf for "dog" it appears once. There is no mention of dog free areas appealing to anyone of a different race or religion. They appeal to me sometimes and I'm a dog owner. This is one of the Telegraph articles. It's shocking really when you consider the actual report. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/11/14/our-colonial-guilt-absurd-branding-d [Post edited 16 Nov 15:05]

I'd love to ban the press from promoting division. The original article is just more race baiting from the usual suspects. | | | |

Yes, Scotia put the link up. It’s clickbait because from a 22 page report which mentions dogs once, a headline has been created to manufacture outrage. | | | |
They came for our libraries on 15:50 - Nov 16 with 1015 views | majorraglan | It’s a continuation of the war on woke to try and stir up division unnecessarily.

It must be exhausting to be cross about this stuff all the time. I can’t see it changing. Once the internet found that creating anger gets more clicks than anything else, the growth of these kind of headlines was inevitable. | | | |

I wouldn't say it was "outrage" more anger at the stupidity of the senedd that have wasted more money on comissioning this report, and the media are quite right in highlighting this lunacy. Now If it were the conservatives that had spent money on such a report, I'm pretty sure you and a few others would be condeming it for the waste of time and money that it is, instead of trying to brush it off as "click bait" | |

I’d agree that it seems like a waste of money to state the obvious. That wasn’t the OP though. | | | |

Even If it only cost £20, that's probably £19.99 to much And It is relevent of the OP. | |

The OP is about wokeness and I can see what you mean about a perceived waste of money is built in. I see irony in it that some people who are furious about people not integrating with British culture are also furious when a report is commissioned to try and encourage that not no happen. Some people are just furious. | | | |
