Abstract
Presentation: analysis of gambling-related discussions in the the British Parliament between 2005 and 2015. Uses official Hansard records to document interest in and sentiment towards different sectors of the gambling industry; and to identify how parliamentary sentiment has corresponded with changes (positive and negative) to gambling legislation and regulation (and to ask whether parliamentary interest can be used as a lead indicator of regulatory change).
Keywords
