Electric TrikeThis is how #AnthonyAlbanese works: he takes too long to make a decision and when he finally does the decision he makes is too weak. He is like an orange tree fruiting in summer, small and pale and sparsely set.
Politically, this is a terrible characteristic. He weathers all the opprobrium of indecision and then, in eventually acting, reminds everyone of his inadequacy. Speed is not traded for thoughtfulness or thoughtfulness traded for urgency. He is simply slow and wrong. He is at once late, indecisive and insubstantial.
It is not clear what made Albanese finally act this week on the recommendations of the Murphy review into gambling advertising. Perhaps Peter V’landys told him it was time and he was allowed to. Perhaps it was a distraction from the fuel shock, or vice versa: he was waiting for a global calamity during which he could do as little as possible to address the overwhelming support for a full ban on gambling advertising.
More than a thousand days have passed since the report was handed to government. The committee’s chair has since died. An election has been and gone. An untold number of people have been tortured by problem gambling during this long interregnum.
“The government is taking decisive action to tackle the community and public health concerns associated with gambling,” Albanese said in a press release on Thursday.
“We’re getting the balance right here, letting adults have a punt if they want to but also making sure Australian children don’t see betting ads everywhere they look. What we don’t want is kids growing up thinking that footy and gambling are the same thing.”
Albanese says these are the most significant reforms ever implemented. This is the lie of comparison. It is true and also meaningless. They are the first such reforms and they are manifestly inadequate.
The Murphy review called for “a comprehensive ban on all forms of advertising for online gambling, to be introduced in four phases, over three years, commencing immediately”.
Those three years have now passed and Albanese has instead announced “restricting gambling advertising on broadcast television to no more than three ads each hour between 6am and 8.30pm, with a complete ban during live sport broadcasts within those hours”.
There will be a radio ban during school pick-up. Online ads will continue where a platform believes a person is 18, but players will no longer have “Sportsbet” written on their guernseys. Match fixing will become a criminal offence.
When Albanese talks about balance, he is usually talking about doing less than what is necessary. It is one of his tells, like a poker player coughing, or going online to empty his savings into a digital casino.
The argument is apparently about personal freedoms, about “adults having a punt”. This is almost as honest as the companies involved. Stopping gambling ads does not stop betting. It does not take away choice. It simply caps exploitation.
The reality is that Albanese does not want to upset the profitable nexus between sport, gambling and television. He has been convinced that without gambling revenue, television would not survive, and without television licensing deals sporting codes would not be able to support children’s football.
It’s a sorry world if an under-7s side is dependent on gambling addicts for its existence. Somehow, this is the world in which Albanese lives. It’s very unlikely this is true, but it sounds convincing in the box at State of Origin. If it were true, of course, the government could always step in and fund children’s sport. That would require strength and decisiveness and several other attributes that on this issue elude Albanese. #auspol #Labor
