New Powers to Limit Betting Shops

It looks like Councils will finally get powers to stop clusters of betting shops.  This is an issue that has been bubbling along for some time.  I am glad that changes are finally in sight, although it seems to involve a bit of a change of heart by the Tories and Liberal Democrats.

UPDATE

It looks like the betting industry will fight these measures as hard as they can, which given the amount of money they make, is not surprising.
