Excellent Sophie! @sophiescamps.bsky.social Our community Independents at work to hold this *bought* government to account !
Unsurprisingly, key advocates for more action on gambling ads have branded the government and Liberal amendments as inadequate. Independent MP Sophie Scamps, responding to discussion about the deal, slammed the changes as “weak, piecemeal, pathetic.”

Australians are the biggest losers to gambling in the world and over 400 die by suicide each year linked to gambling addiction. Yet the major parties will crow about doing a deal that will be ineffective and which prioritises the profits of Gambling corporations over the wellbeing of Australians.
