    This is why we need government intervention on gambling

    What happened with smoking didn’t happen overnight

    It started with them banning advertising, next came the smoking ban in public places, then we had the warning labels put on packs and now (in Scotland anyways) cigarettes are not even allowed to be visible behind the counters in shops

      Sadly a lot of the gambling industry have gotten ahead of things already, leveraging streamers and shit to indoctrinate kids into the habit.
