Is this how Manchester will look in a couple of years time? Will it become the Las Vegas of the United Kingdom?
Can I just ask why this government has such an obsession with gambling and drinking? I personally find it appalling that a massive casino is to be built anywhere in the UK. The dangers of addiction are so well known - why are the government going blindly down this route of encouraging more and more people to take up gambling? Nothing seems to be being done about Internet gambling, unregulated private gambling clubs, television programmes making vast amounts of money from gullible punters for spurious quizes, or lotteries. This government seems to be increasingly in the pockets of gamblers, brewers and distillers. I for one am very uncomfortable.
