  1. Bleeting entities (Free to air TV, Sports Bars, and the gambling industry lobby, etc.) must have #AlboPM ‘s ear. How else do you explain the paltry measures recently announced by the govt.

    “The Murphy report insisted on a full ban on gambling advertising and 30 other recommendations – such as establishing a national gambling regulator and banning inducements – for good reason. Gambling companies are predatory and innovative – history shows if you leave a loophole, they’ll exploit it.” (Source: theguardian.com/commentisfree/ )

  2. Today I was intending to avoid social media (otherwise I get nothing done), but this cannot be ignored. #AllegraSpenderMP and #MoniqueRyanMP have quit the Parliamentary #SportClub because #DavidPocockMP has been banned from the club;

    “What an absolute disgrace that former Wallaby, Senator David Pocock has been excluded … because he raised concerns about the club’s links to the gambling industry. The sports club should be about politicians’ love of sport, not their sad addiction to the gambling lobby.”
