Gambling marketing has no place in schools. Everyone involved in this @WorldSportsBet production must be held accountable. Did NO ONE on the set think this was problematic? Did no one think "hey, maybe this is a bad idea"? If not, why not?
.@WorldSportsBet walked into a preschool classroom, in front of young children, to promote its brand, spin a prize wheel and reward a teacher for having an active betting account. How was this approved? @tumisole @shufflesdu, please help me share this far and wide!
Are Budget, SONA, and Mining Indaba key events for your business? Have you started planning yet?
Let's chat now, before the December break and the January noise.

Agree. How long do we have to wait for these adverts to be better regulated?
Advertising doesn’t get much more aggressive than this.
Even the small screen features a betting ad.
Our airports are also blanketed in these ads.
Tighter national regulations to curb this can’t come quickly enough.
Enough already.

How did we get to a situation where nine women were murdered in South Africa? I share some thoughts on how to respond to the political promises that will be made. And what you and I can do to - finally - stop the GBV. Hopefully. substack.com/@martinslabbert…

Watching @RediTlhabi in action - on air, on stage, wherever - makes me ridiculously happy and proud. She has worked hard and deserves the accolades.
Ok, I do have 1 issue with her. Running - why?? You have a car, why run (asks the unfit guy who got winded from typing this) 🤣
