The Labor MP Jerome Laxale has expressed his “disappointment” in the Albanese government’s failure to restrict gambling ads and called on the party to “honour the legacy” of the late Peta Murphy if re-elected.
Laxale, a left-faction MP who is trying to hold on to the ultra-marginal New South Wales seat of Bennelong, said he was “sick of seeing betting odds linked to live sport” and told voters in his electorate there was “a strong reform package coming”.
