Legendary England goalkeeper Peter Shilton has weighed in on the contentious issue of online gambling, calling for the European Union to introduce a tax on online betting. The former World Cup hero, who made a record 125 appearances for his country, believes that a tax on online gambling would help to combat problem gambling and generate revenue for struggling communities. Shilton's proposal comes as the EU grapples with the complexities of regulating online gambling, which has become a multi-billion dollar industry in recent years. With the UK's own online gambling laws set to change in the wake of Brexit, Shilton's comments are likely to spark a heated debate about the future of online betting in Europe.
