Something is eating my gooseberry bush

Went to the plot today and found my gooseberry bushes are being eaten.It looks like slug damage, do slugs eat the leaves?

My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world. I wanted Liverpool to be untouchable. My idea was to build Liverpool up and up until eventually everyone would have to submit and give in. Bill Shankly.
