At the time of writing (mid-February 2018), the advertising regulator in Great Britain has just issued wide ranging new guidance that is intended to have a substantial impact on the content (and tone) of such adverts. Adverts will have to change but we wait to see how significantly operators will change their adverts and what action is taken against non-compliant operators.”
