Slot machine firms target UK’s poorest areas, channel funds to billionaires. Poor buy dreams, corporations always win; encourage addiction, don't bear the cost of harms. Empower councils to stop these vampires. Govt pushing deregulation. Tax them. theguardian.com/society/2025/m…

A CEGA investigation has found Premier League clubs Leicester, Wolves & newly-promoted Burnley are advertising unlicensed gambling sites that accept UK customers. These clubs are thumbing their noses at the Gambling Commission & letting down their fans. news.sky.com/story/premier-…

This has to be one of the most deserved public service awards ever. A serious and devoted clinician who cares directly for the people that he is helping - but sees beyond the individual and is prepared to push for the reforms to gambling needed to stop the harms. Thank you Matt.

Great piece from Matt Zarb-Cousin who gets more abuse than most in the gambling reform space.  “Prevention for me can only really happen through regulation.” His aim is clear: tackling gambling harm through practical measures while pushing for real change. sigma.world/news/gamban-se…

Today, Gordon Brown has launched his campaign to tax online gambling to raise money to address the unacceptable levels of child poverty in the UK. I support this call and will be writing to the Chancellor to ask her to levy this tax in the Budget theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
