A survey of social changes in Britain in the last decade states that the amount of gambling in Britain is now stupendous; that we have become a nation of debtors; that there is a basic discontent with what has become very strongly an era of materialism which expresses itself "in a grasping after unearned wealth"; and that the number of married women at work has achieved a "housewives' revolution."
This financial independence and the easy access to online bingo communities has given many women an outlet to their urges to gamble without having to go into a seedy casino or bingo club full of there local community.
In fact even the massive marketing drive to "make over" the image of UK Bingo Clubs was just before the big online bingo boom promoting a much more acceptable way to gamble online
The report [says on gambling]: "the amount of money staked does emphasise the extent of the fever." The estimated turnover in 1961 on all forms of gambling was £762 million - nearly £14 per head of population.
The report is a contrast between conditions revealed in the census of 1951 and in that of 1961. [It] forecasts that the main population developments, even to such factors as early marriage and early birth of the first child, will continue.
"More people will want to move into an outer suburban life, buy cars, educate their children longer, suffer their surgical illnesses in private rooms of hospitals, spend evenings staring at television, spend more, gamble more (such as online poker and online bingo, buy more washing machines on hire purchase, take holidays in Italy, lay their own parquet floors, and so on.
