I detest gambling adds on TV, especially during Sporting matches.
These adds are a scourge on society, especially for young people who think they might make a quick buck. GET THEM OFF.

Its a money flow for sites and TV companies both of them only Interested In money, no concern for those lives they ruin.

If people only understood how gambling can effect the neurons in the brain. Parts of the brain that respond to the prospects of winning and losing money while gambling are the same as those that appear to respond to cocaine and morphine.
I've witnessed total financial and family destruction.

Put an end to this! STOP Gambling Adverts on RADIO and TV. They seem to be everywhere and on all the time targeting people who may have little money in the first place. I know many people who have succumbed to this addiction and lives have been ruined in the process. Not only splitting up marriages and families but inducing bouts of depression and alcoholism. I would liken gambling to heroin, the highs of winning and wanting to replicate that high can leave people penniless and resorting to crime.
It is and can become a damaging addiction whose effects can ruin lives. Any form of Advertising should be banned.

Children are now being bombarded with gambling adverts when watching football on tv and listening to it on the radio so that they grow up thinking it is normal to place bets for every game. Disgusting!

Gambling is a socially, emotionally and financially destructive addictive habit, that is difficult enough to stop for those in trouble. Widespread advertising is seriously detrimental to individuals trying to quit.
