In a letter sent on September 24, the lawmakers call for a “targeted levy” on online gambling, claiming the current 21% tax rate is too low compared to countries like the Netherlands (37.8%) or parts of the US (up to 55%). The MPs argue that the sector’s £4.3 billion in annual profits from online slots alone justifies a higher tax, aiming to direct the revenue towards social welfare initiatives.
