Prelude to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan

Soaring Antes at the UK

One year ago the Government managed to force a contentious renovate of gaming on to the statute book, but only by making two key acknowledgments. The primary was to scale back the number of so-called “super casinos” in favors of a careful and far more wary move toward to liberalization.

The second came with an oath by Tessa Jowell, the Cultural Secretary, that the inward Gambling Commission would be an energetic and decisive watchdog of the UK gambling industry. This organization, she declares, would be one of such inquisitive concentration that the industry would fast become “in dread” of it.
