I have seen and experiences personally the destructive nature gambling has on modern society. You may think you are lining your pockets with the proceeds of Gambling, but in return you are destroying the very existence of modern civilisation.

This targets vulnerable people and the poor. Gambling advertising during football matches in particular targets poor young men as this is their main passion.

I am a recovering compulsive gambler and find it that much harder to stay "clean" with so much constant advertising of casinos, lottery, scratch tickets and now online gambling. As a member of GA, I am sure I speak for the many thousands of members who are trying to beat this terrible and life altering addiction that the advertising must stop or at the very least be limited in some way.

I am a recovering gambler and think it is totally wrong that during every ad break there are adverts on television encouraging people to gamble. It must be banned!

I dont know why the government has banned this like cigarette manufacturers. Its just as harmful if not worse. The fact they can air these ads on day time shows when children are watching is totally wrong.

I am watching Christmas TV and each advert break has an advert for gambling.
This is so wrong and we need to rethink our social thinking

Gambling addiction is a pernicious problem that destroys individuals and families. Gambling should be made more difficult rather than easier with no advertising, no gambling apps or online play and fewer shops. It can be a terrible cycle, almost impossible to crack.

There should be no gambling ads. There is at least one ad. every break on tv. I or my family members do not have a gambling problem but there are people that do. There should be no ads for gambling.

I agree that gambling has destroyed many lives. These ads are also exposing children to this type of behavior. Children are watching tv while these ads are being played. I hope that this petition will bring light to what we are exposing children to,

This type of gambling is very addictive and easy assessable to people like myself who would not otherwise gamble. the sites give you a bonus once you deposit however you can not make a withdrawal until you wager ten time the bonus. by then you are we and truly hooked.
Then you are face with advertising to tempt you back in if you get out.
