Australia to crack down on gambling ads after years of criticism

'"Today it's gambling advertising, tomorrow it's alcohol, then it's sugary drinks, fast food, critical minerals and who knows what else comes next," chief executive [of the Australian gambling industry peak organization] Kai Cantwell said.'

Hang on Cantwell, this is all good stuff. You've talked me in to it!

'Gambling ads will be banned from radio during school pick-up and drop-off times' lol
