UK casinos will not be allowed to open as expected under original government plans.
They were forced to shut down on March 23 because of the COVID-19, and a recent announcement by the prime minister has disappointed yet again those keen to get back to dealing the cards.

Finally, the common sense wins! No one government wants to be remembered like the responsible of thousand of preventable death. And Boris Johnson be there, he was hardly affected by the virus and he had a hard time and was narrowly saved. Instead of his deep belief in neoliberalism and the priority of the business, he isn´t dope. Good for him! Including Donald Trump is becoming his virus negation...

This thing will not be to the liking of bettors in United Kingdom. They risk a lot of money in all sports or even in other oddities, where they bet. It's not nice but situation is paradoxical. Anyway, i'm very curious what will be this fall / winter.

They said they were going to reopen casinos , now they changed their minds and postponed it for 15 days ?? Man , these back and forth , this indecisiveness I cannot understand at ll . As the Ceo of this casino said , many other businesses with higher risk , or without so many disinfection and protection methods , have opened , the casinos in UK why not ???

Oh, these stupid government making all this annoying measure to save lives. I don´t know how they don´t hear to the owners of Casinos and their selfless opinions. Why don´t hear people who have the best idea about public health and ways to protect life? Why don´t hear the bettors, who don´t care about their own life and are trying to bet about to be infected and die or to be infected and feel the death near his bed? How can they be so dope?

Man, don't you really realize that there were protests in many countries where thousands of people or even over a million (Germany) protested in the street and most did not wear masks? They did not get sick and mass media lied too much.Televisions have been exaggerating for a long time... Don't be scared for no concrete reason.

A postponement for 15 days doens't make any sense . Cause what will happen or won't happen in 15 days ?? A mystery Many other businesses are already open , casinos why not ??? In casinos they can use the best of the disinfection methods and provide secure invironment for the players , this acan also happen in the hotels where players stay . No need to create problems to these businesses , enough financial damage they have already suffered

It doesn't matter how long it is closed because England will pay certain damages for those who lose money during this time(racetrack,competitors). You see there it is well calculated. Foreign citizens who did not have a job at the time, when it was forbidden to walk on the street due to coronavirus... also received money.

Employees have been retrained to come back with the new conditiond and measures and work again , now these postponements do only harm , to them and the businesses . UK goverment has money to support the people who cannot carry on working due to the restrictions , but for how long until they see their budget is running out of money ?? Better people go to work and all businesses , casinos as well , go back to normality .

It is best for good doctors to tell the truth and stop playing many games of corrupt politicians, who are obliged by New World Order to manipulate all planet population. I am dismayed that economy is collapsing and many people are in trouble...
