UK Allows More Gambling? You Bet !

July 23rd, 2006

While the United States attempts to conduct it’s “great leap backwards” and start banning it’s citizens from taking part in online gambling – exactly the opposite is happening in the UK.

Casinos, betting shops and gambling websites will all be allowed to advertise on British Televeision and Radio by 2007.

New laws are being drafted that will ease restrictions in the UK, particularly around advertising – reversing rules that were put in place in the 1960’s to lessen the public appetite for gambling.

With televised poker rating well on TV, and gambling on sports well established and part of mainstream life, UK legislators are prepared to allow British citizens to make their own free choice about where to spend their leisure money.

Suddenly the US seems to have a lot more in common with China – preventing free internet access to it’s people … food for thought ?
