Gambling health harms are more substantial than previously understood, exacerbated by rapid global expansion & digital transformation of the industry. A new @TheLancetPH Commission calls for regulatory reform: hubs.li/Q02VMzws0

Who could have guessed that the commitment Premier League clubs made to their fans to remove 'front of short' gambling sponsorship by the 25/26 season would be such a mockery? Where there's money there's a way.
We're delighted to announce Mega Riches as the new back of shirt sponsor for the 2024/25 season. 👕

What is the minimum we can get away with to satisfy calls to reduce young fans exposure to gambling, whilst continuing to sportswash our harmful gambling products? A disappointing lack of ambition and care.
The Premier League, @EFL, The @FA and @BarclaysWSL have formally agreed to adopt a new Code of Conduct for gambling sponsorship in football. Learn more here: preml.ge/daw00rev

Good to see that new voluntary code of practice on gambling sponsorship in football reducing exposure of young fans to gambling advertising... 👀
Manchester City are pleased to announce a new multi-year global partnership with leading online betting and gaming brand, Betway 🤝

Premier League, FA, EFL and WSL agree code of conduct over gambling deals. Gambling sponsorship is about encouraging people to gamble. How can that ever be described as “responsible”? theguardian.com/football/art…

Govt's landmark review of gambling could double or treble the number of the most harmful gambling products on our high streets. Btw. licensed premises cluster in areas of high deprivation. Govt is protecting industry from harm, not the population. questions-statements.parliam…

Proposals include a welcome rise in licensing fees that local authorities can charge (the first since 2007 😱). BUT come with no additional powers to stop the proliferation of harmful products in our communities. #gamblingreview high stakes, low impact.

50% of GM residents who report their reason for gambling was “because they couldn’t stop” use gaming machines in licensed premises. These products cause harm and are used by people highly vulnerable to or already experiencing gambling addiction. Ref 📑 greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk/…
