Suella Braverman called the dogs a ‘clear and lethal danger’ after an attack on an 11-year-old girl.
“This is appalling. The American XL Bully is a clear and lethal danger to our communities, particularly to children,” Ms Braverman wrote on social media.The advice was commissioned last week, an adviser said.
But it is also against the law to have a dog that is dangerously out of control, which can be punished by prison sentences and unlimited fines. Sir John Hayes, a close ally of Ms Braverman, has been pushing in the House of Commons for a ban on the dog he has claimed is “bred to kill”.
