More than 70% of Australians support a complete ban on gambling advertising, but the Government still seems to be moving ahead with its partial ban. The Government must listen to the community & implement a full ban on gambling advertising #auspol #politas #BanGamblingAdvertising

80% of Australians support a complete ban on gambling advertising. It’s time the government got on board. Join the campaign today to call on the federal government to protect young Australians from the predatory gambling industry and free our feeds from gambling ads.

A 1.4% levy on the gambling industry could compensate the media for ALL revenue lost from a potential gambling advertising ban. Australians lose more money gambling than any other country. It's time for our governments to act. Amy Remeikis #auspol

Gambling companies are finding loopholes to entice vulnerable people back onto their platform - even when people have decided they want to stop gambling and self excluded on BetStop. This is what happens when you leave gaps that can be exploited by what is known to be a predatory industry. And it shows what will happen if the Government opts for a partial ban on gambling ads, rather than a full ban. The late Labor MP Peta Murphy and her committee report gave us the blueprint for change, it's time for the government to implement the Murphy Report recommendations in full. If you want to read more, this is from Peta Murphy's Foreword to the committee report: "Online gambling companies advertise so much in Australia because it works. Online gambling has been deliberately and strategically marketed alongside sport, which has normalised it as a fun, harmless, and sociable activity that is part of a favourite pastime. Gambling advertising is grooming children and young people to gamble and encourages riskier behaviour. The torrent of advertising is inescapable. It is manipulating an impressionable and vulnerable audience to gamble online. Australia’s largest professional sporting codes and broadcast media were largely in lockstep with their advertising and sponsorship partners in the gambling industry during this inquiry to oppose further restrictions. The Committee shares the concerns of many witnesses and the community that the status quo is leading to a generation of young Australians who view gambling and sport as inextricably linked. This is concerning, not only because of the potential increase in Australians experiencing gambling harm, but also about changes to the culture of sport. Australia would be diminished if sport was to be so captured by gambling revenue that providing an opportunity for betting came to be seen as its primary purpose. A phased, comprehensive ban on all gambling advertising on all media – broadcast and online, that leaves no room for circumvention, is needed. Partial bans on gambling advertising do not work. The 2017 media reforms resulted in gambling advertising on television increasing. Harmful industries have shown they will identify and capitalise on any gaps in marketing restrictions and that they are taking advantage of the less regulated online environment. The advertising ban should be enforced sequentially, with advertising that has the highest risk of harm to be addressed immediately. To enable sporting bodies and broadcasters adequate time to locate alternative sources of advertising revenue and to comply with current contractual obligations, the Committee recommends that the comprehensive ban be phased in over a three-year period."

Today I moved to suspend standing orders over the government's failure to act on gambling harm. The ask was simple: release the draft gambling laws for public consultation before the laws are passed. The government voted no. And the Coalition? They didn't even show up. More than 3 million Australians continue to be harmed by gambling advertising. Australians deserve better.

Sonya Semmens fires up over 36 Months Pty Ltd. They are linked to gambling advertising, through Galluzzo - an owner of 36 Months. His other company FINCH makes gambling ads. The ban has failed. It was bad policy. Albanese doesn't really care about our kids.

If it looks and talks like gambling, it is gambling. Regulation of sports betting and casino-style prediction markets belongs to the states—not the federal government. Joined Squawk Box to discuss our bill to keep these products out of spaces where they don’t belong.

Gambling destroys lives. Online gambling only makes it more accessible. Whole families are being destroyed, and all the focus is on drug and alcohol addiction.

I'll be doing something on Monday that is long overdue. I'll be tabling a Private Members’ Bill to ban gambling advertising on broadcast. I announced this to Goldstein on Thursday night. Watch their reactions. This is now a live issue. #BanSportsGambling #auspol

Gambling surged to R1.5 trillion in the 2024/25 financial year. The rise was driven by easy online access, weak controls and growing participation among young people. Sibongile Simelane Quntana from the South African Responsible Gambling Foundation says stronger protections are needed, warning that gambling advertising remains the biggest problem. Tune in to #eNCA, channel #DStv403.
