A regulator gone rogue. Shaming a successful industry. Because we are, in fact, very successful in controlling problem gambling Please share or comment

We know that AGT have lost their on-course contract to manage the betting rings. But who is going to replace them and at what cost to the on-course betting industry? starsportsbet.co.uk/simon-no…

Very much so. In my mind Dave there should be a sliding scale on pitch fees. I know it’s controversial but the better the pitches, the more rent you should pay. Visa Versa for the poorer pitches, regardless of how much a pitch has been bought for.🤔

A quick message to @CheltenhamRaces. I paid £7320 in pitch fees for the 4 days last week. Admittedly this was for three stands, but please don’t raise it any more for next year. Ascot offer a discount for their multi day bookies, I suggest you look at doing the same. Regards Tash

My advice to young people is ignore all the condescending tweets from older people urging you to register to vote. By all means do it if you want to, but if you’re too busy sleeping til 2pm, drinking cider in a park & playing FIFA to be arsed about voting that’s your right too.

I see Ascot are letting bookies workmen in free of charge on the 22nd.👍Shouldn’t this be standard practice across the board though? There are not many businesses where the staff are charged to work?🤔🤔
