MPs Demand £2 Online Betting Limit
This was a headline in The Times on Tuesday.
- I’ve never gambled in a casino; either for real or on-line.
- If I did have a gamble in the past, it was always on the horses and it usually concerned horses, where I knew something the bookies didn’t!
But I have either been clever or lucky several times in the past.
As to this plan from MPs, I think it will be a bad idea.
Those that provide on-line casino services will get round any limit or be based in a country, where either gambling is a legitimate way to fleece the mugs or UK laws are not respected.
I hope my taxes won’t rise to pay benefits to those, who’ve lost all their money.
The Anonymous Widower 
The main issue with online gambling is young people, mostly women, playing bingo or slot machine type games, using credit cards, and running up huge debts. A lot of them are stuck at home and bored and they get drawn in by tv adverts and they want to make themselves some money. Very very sad.
