They should do more than just that. Gambling is a blight.
Dodgy donors aside, I can’t believe gambling ads had allowed to become so prevalent on TV.
Why are gambling ads a thing? I’m pretty sure they were illegal when I was a kid. That should never have changed.
What’s the odds that this will be lobbied hard by the full financial might of Bet Fred etc?
Get rid of them all together like they did the smoking adverts
