This idiot is trying to kill the gambling industry in the UK .. it's a shame, they'll find offshore brands to bet that's for sure..

Tanks for the news!

It's horrible, I think these checks actually do more harm than good. They force players to look for workarounds, for example, to play on unregulated sites

to play on unregulated sites

Frankly, I haven't seen much effort go into looking after player complaints, at regulated sites. Seems the only thing regulation does is charge tax, makes up rules to charge fines, and pool that cash into Gov., Coffers.

I don't suggest players play at clip-joints BUT really, there are lots of decent casinos who are not UK licensed.

They treat their players very well, pay legit winners with no fuss, and better yet, have NO Source of Wealth BS.

As I've said over recent years, the UKGC seems hell-bent on ruining the online gaming in the UK.

I agree that the UKGC seems hell bent on destroying online gaming in the UK. The new rules are excessive and unnecessary
