Former MP Condemns Coalition Over Gambling Reforms
🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Ware's criticism exposes a Coalition split, but the real letdown is that vulnerable Australians will still be exposed to gambling ads without a full ban.
💡 Why it matters
Without a complete advertising ban, Australia's gambling harm crisis will keep escalating, costing vulnerable communities billions and worsening public health outcomes.
Former Liberal MP Jenny Ware condemned the Coalition for backing Labor's gambling legislation, arguing it falls short of the wagering advertising ban recommended by the inquiry she served on. She called gambling a public health crisis demanding a stronger response from major parties.
