The
South's casinos will be open 24 hours and have unlimited jackpots.
The
final draft of the government's new gambling bill has been revealed - if it goes
through Parliament, large Casinos like the ones in Southampton and Southsea will
be able to open 24 hours.
As
well as opening round the clock, the
casinos will be able to have up to 1,250 slot machines and unlimited jackpots
- at the moment they're limited to 10 machines with £2,000 jackpots.
You'll
also be able to walk into the casinos and start gambling straight away - at the
moment there's a 24-hour joining period.
Slot machines will be banned
from places like chip shops and cab offices, and internet gaming will be restricted
to stop children being able to play.
Do
you think the bill will lead to an increase in gambling addictions or should
adults be able to have a flutter whenever they want? Do you think it will
help stop youngsters gambling?
