Dear Editor I was horrified to read Glasgow people spend £200 million a year on fixed-odds, betting stations. Where do people get the money? It is no wonder this country is in debt. Maybe some people can afford the odd flutter, but this is horrifying. It can have no positive impact on society whatsoever.
Betting shops are taking over our high streets, making them so accessible for people. It is no wonder pay day loan companies are doing well.
Yours sincerely Alex Dounie Dollar
