flag Gambling advocate Kate Seselja criticized Minister Anika Wells in Aug 2025 for blaming victims instead of holding industry accountable for reform.

flag Kate Seselja, a former gambling addict who overcame a life-threatening pokies addiction, criticized Communications Minister Anika Wells in August 2025 for shifting responsibility for gambling reform from government and industry to affected individuals. flag Seselja, a decade-long advocate for change, said Wells emphasized that reform efforts should focus on persuading wagering companies, broadcasters, and sports organizations that profit from gambling, rather than on victims. flag The exchange underscores ongoing concerns that systemic gambling reform remains stalled, with advocates arguing that commercial interests continue to overshadow public health needs and that meaningful change requires government accountability, not reliance on industry self-regulation.
