Ban the FOBT machines - they are a waste of space and cause constant problems.

William Hill announce they are closing 700 betting shops as a result of this change in the law.

It’s very sad for those people who will lose their jobs, but it goes to show how much money they were raking in with those bloody machines.

Theyre a horrible working environment. I wouldn't wish working in one on my worst enemy

If you work in a betting shop then youre a mug because there are better paid jobs you could easily get.

I agree.

But for those left in work after these changes, they’ll have a lot less shit to put up with. I’ve seen loads of people going off on one after losing on those machines.

They’ll probably have better working hours too, as there’s no reason to keep the shop open til 9 or 10 at night.
