October 13 2017

Another pretty standard week; children being targeted and nobody is allowed to win:

• You can’t win as bookies don’t trade with anyone who wins
• Online gambling companies are targeting children
• A sad tale of an industry out of control
• The multi-millionaires who are benefitting from gamblers losses
• Gambling advertising under fire again

The following are all the links to the media coverage proving we’re not making it up.

ps:  Does NOT include all the media coverage of violence and robberies in betting shops.
