Labour MP pushes for Channel 4 to enforce ban on gambling adverts

Prior to efforts to fully outlaw the "harmful" advertisements, Channel 4 is being pressured to cease airing the advertisements of betting companies.

The letter was sent in the midst of growing pressure to stop betting companies from advertising in order to combat gambling addiction.

It is estimated that betting companies spend a total of £2 billion annually on advertising due to the rise in popularity of online gambling.
