Very disappointing effort from the Daily Mail - only three links on that page to articles slagging off Meghan Markle!

Have they called a truce? - usually at least six or seven.

Bigger picture here gents, is a man with severe gambling
Problems, has most probably lost everything in his life, including
His liberty. Questions must be asked, as to how Betfair/flutter allowed
Him to lose 1.5 million. Presumably having his financials ??

where does corporate responsibilty begin and end? its not the business of business to be moral and ethical policemen. they are tightly regulated and heavily taxed. if that aint enough then its the govts business to do something about it, not theirs

operators are frightened of an unaccoutable quango that hands out giant arbitrary fines

problem shopping is estimated twice as bad but no checks on that. or scratchcards, or...

we are the only country in the world that does this. why?

Well you wouldn't, because your personality leads you to jab points entirely be innuendo and cryptic clues from which you can readily renage: a limit-case bull$hitter, I suspect.

No, I know nothing about this, that's why I'm asking.
Given your incontinent posting in front of the Murphy trial, your gnomic clue looks a bit - what's the word? - bogus.

I hope the gambling entity is fined 10x the money stolen to bet with them. In addition the gambling entity will be asked to return the gambled/stolen money to the company the problem gambler stole from.

now then

what did i write about the smurf you think is wrong? and even if it was, its not relevant to this. and you brought it up, not me

go back to the early days of notfair and the landscape was very different. aside from the small number of those at the forefront who really made a killing that is hard to credit given how things have crumbled since but there were rebates, kickbacks commissions that were all highly lucrative and some profited hugely from them

and if you dont know, dont be so dismissive and accusative. its rank bad manners, for a start

No company should be allowed to drain individuals of vast some of money, until they no longer bet,
oh whers  a/c number xxx, dont know, hé lost  1.5 million,then hé just disappeared, ah well carry on.  There is rules
Mitosis, been in place a long time,  but not enforced, presently or retrospectively? And it is their business legally
And morally to intervene. Your analogy of shoppin, scratch cards etc, is meaningless, as it’s impossible to police
Or enforce. But with the large corporate bookies, it is all there in front of them, on these people’s accounts, everything
Is there, they can intervene, but they chose not to, as the profits are bigger than the fine.

I worked in the industry thé problem gambling issue is huge, not small, I can assure that. Estimated 3 to 4 suicides a week
Due to gambling
