To be fair it’s the strongest legislation passed to date. 👏 👏 TV advertising will be limited to 3 an hour from 5am-8.30pm, online ads only to be shown to over 18’s with a mandatory opt out option, sporting stadiums ads will eventually be banned and advertising on players’ jerseys will see new restrictions on inducements, celebrity endorsements and employee commissions from gambling losses.
Top journalism. Intelligent, reasonably balanced, witty , informative and fun. Thank you for your good work.
I can’t listen anymore. I have tried for over a year but the one-sided, hyperbolic rubbish these two keep dribbling out is too much. No open interrogation of the core issues or policy to inform voters, just take downs and gotcha moments of any politician or pole results they don’t align with. Trashing ordinary people who hold opposing views, convinced they are just puppets of social media scions, when they are capable of independent thought. You two just push people further to the right.
Researched and considered. Finally
The best news and commentary podcast, bar none. I live in the US and am constantly amazed at the quality of content. Long may the podcast live!
