Removing or decreasing the number of gambling adverts in tv

Petition Details

due to gambling, any person who gambles in a casino the range of money lost, depending on what game you play, you can lose between £2000-£4000 per year. This can really damage a persons life in many different way such as family life, mental health or physical health. This is why these ads need to go

Additional Information

gambling addiction is a very serious issue that isn't touched upon very often by parliament and needs to be talked about more. Many people struggle with this addiction thinking that they can win big on the games that they play. for example people who paly blackjack on a regular basis can lose up to £2020 per year and someone that plays poker can lose up to £1000 per year. We hope to change government legislation on this matter and for the Advertising Standards Authority to reduce these adverts
