Call for radical overhaul of online casinos after far-reaching inquiry
MPs favour reforms such as £2 limit on stakes, with Boris Johnson seen as sympathetic
Online casinos should be subject to maximum stake limits similar to the £2 limits imposed on fixed-odds betting terminals (FOBTs), according to a report released by a group of MPs who are demanding a “root and branch” overhaul of gambling law.
In a wide-ranging report, members of the cross-party group on gambling-related harm – who include high-profile Conservatives such as Iain Duncan Smith – called for a raft of measures to protect vulnerable people.
