Rejected petition Take back the lottery into a UK company
It is now run by a Canadian Pension fund for teachers which I feel is benefiting them not us.
The amount of roll overs, lack of sense in payout structure and numerous lotto now available is ridiculous.
More details
We are supposed to be a country that cares for it's citizens but this is gambling and is run by a company with no care how much it takes off us.
The payouts even for 5 numbers are low and in the scheme of things wrong.
How do we know they are not cheating us by knowing what numbers haven't been picked already?
I would like it looked into and brought back within the UK, in fact returned to how it was when started, it needs simplifying.
