Britain’s Casino Advisory Panel today announces which site will host the country’s first Las Vegas-style “super-casino,” likely to be at least 5,000 sq metres in area and boast up to 1,250 unlimited jackpot machines.
What effect do you think the super-casino will have on its immediate neighbourhood and Britain as a whole? Should the Government be cracking down on gambling rather than liberalising the practice? Is gambling an irresponsible vice or a harmless pastime?
Or is this simply a matter of allowing us to spend our money however we see fit without busybodies from the state interfering? Would you object to having the super-casino in your area?
Do you expect the new gambling laws to lead to an increase in anti-social behaviour and crime? Have you been to Las Vegas and, if so, what were your impressions of the city and its casinos?
The 2005 Gambling Act allows casinos and betting shops to advertise on British television for the first time. Is this progress or a step backwards?
