Rishi Sunak hace una apuesta de £1,000 con Piers Morgan, lo suficiente para desencadenar una verificación de “binge gambling” de solvencia

In a TalkTV interview with Piers Morgan on Monday, Sunak was asked if he was prepared to bet £1,000 that migrant deportation flights to Rwanda would take off before the next general election. Sunak seemed to accept the bet by shaking hands and told Morgan: “I want to get the people on the planes.

I’m working incredibly hard to get people on the planes.” Remarkably, though, the level of stake agreed between Sunak and Morgan would be enough to see the loser face an enhanced financial check under the government’s proposals if it had been placed with an online bookmaker, having hit the threshold for ‘binge gambling’ with a net loss of £1,000 in 24 hours.

According to the white paper, an enhanced financial check would assess “whether a customer’s level of spend is likely to be harmful to them”, involving a review of their financial data that could include the customer being asked to provide bank statements and P60s.
