The gambling industry spends significantly more on online ads than on TV, although commercials linked to television sport broadcasts have attracted the most public attention, amid mounting concern about the industry’s close ties to football. The YouGov survey found that 77% of adults support a ban on gambling ads on radio and TV before 9pm, with a similar number in favour of the same curbs applying to social media and online too. Gambling is addictive and “should be no different” from tobacco in the way that its marketing is restricted, said the RSPH chief executive, Christina Marriott.
