The mother of a 10-year-old boy who was killed by an American bully XL dog has launched a scathing attack on the UK government for not acting sooner to ban the breed.
Emma Whitfield, whose son Jack Lis was fatally wounded two years ago, criticised Suella Braverman, the home secretary, after she said she had commissioned “urgent advice” on outlawing the dogs after an attack on an 11-year-old girl in Birmingham was filmed and posted on social media.
