Haringey are the first council in the UK to join the Coalition to End Gambling Ads!
Councillor @ldasneves.bsky.social explained to Eddie Nestor on BBC London why they've taken a stand for the health of their citizens, and why society can choose to 'permit but not promote' gambling.

We've submitted a complaint to the ASA about this gambling advert by Stake featuring pornographic actress Bonnie Blue. It clearly breaches rules to stop gambling being linked to seduction and appealing to young people.
Let's see if the ASA or Gambling Commission do anything about it.

Today's £100m levy on gambling companies is a first step. Here are three reasons from @willprochaska.bsky.social why the Government must go further:
1. Far more people are being impacted than was thought
2. The gambling industry is a deadweight on the economy
3. The public demand change

The Government claims there's a lack of evidence that gambling advertising leads to harm. 🤔
