CLOSE DOWN CROWN CASINO DUE TO CORONAVIRUS

CLOSE DOWN CROWN CASINO DUE TO CORONAVIRUS
Why this petition matters
Crown Casino needs to be CLOSED DOWN NOW. The Federal Government has ordered that gatherings of 500 people are to be prohibited due to the Coronavirus, which can be lethal to many people and is highly contagious. Crown casinos response to this was to stop every second poker machine.
This is NOT GOOD ENOUGH! For the sake of money, Crown Casino is putting lives at risk. The environment at Crown Casino is ideal for the virus to spread: Many people all interacting in one place and touching the same machines. Crown Casino has leeched off this city enough!
Gambling is not an essential service, although the politicians would want you to believe this as somehow they have given gambling venues the greatest opening hours out of any industry. It is outrageous that the Minister for Gambling (ie. Minister for Consumer Affairs, Gaming and Liquor Regulation) Marlene Kairouz has sat on her hands on this issue.
CROWN CASINO SHOULD BE ORDERED TO SHUT DOWN NOW. LET'S LET THEM KNOW WHAT WE THINK ... THAT LIVES ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN MONEY. SHUT DOWN CROWN CASINO NOW.
