Closed Ban online gambling immediately in the UK

Closed on

The traumatic event of Covid 19 virus has led to a UK wide lockdown of 60 million people - this isolation could lead to a huge jump in online gambling usage, in doing so it could create gambling addicts with utter misery & physiological issues - ban online gambling now

The mental/ health problems from online gambling in this lockdown period could be enormous and its incumbent on the UK Government to ban online gambling immediately to protect its citizens from this.
