Rejected petition No to lottery price increase

More details

I would like the Department for Culture, Media and Sport to step in and stop the proposed 100% increase in the price of a lottery ticket from £1 to £2 due to take place this Autumn. The so-called benefits that Camelot have outlined do not justify the increase. It should be left alone.
