Unlike in the US, in the UK political online gambling is legal and it’s a flourishing industry that generates billions of revenues every year. Brits can bet on anything from the outcome of the so-called “Brexit referendum” all from the comfort of their homes using online betting sites.
Brits have already spent millions of dollars in legal bets regarding the result of the 2016 US prudential elections. The bets are not only limited to the British elections.
A professional British gambler and pundit for Betfair Casino website, Paul Krishnamurty, said the ultraliberal gambling laws let gamblers bet on almost anything taking place anywhere in the world and for whatever stakes they can afford. He further added by saying when it comes to gambling profit scale, opportunities, and entertainment, no gambling market compares to ultraliberal gambling laws.
According to reports, British gambling sites do more than just distribution of money based on outcomes, they also function as some of the best predictors for politicians.
