Tom Watson MP, Labour’s
Shadow Secretary of State for culture, media and sport, commenting on the announcement on banning bots in
ticketing, said:
“Banning bots is a
welcome announcement that is long overdue, but a single fix won’t solve the
problems of the broken ticket market.
"The package of
measures needs to focus on tougher enforcement of existing regulation to stop
big ticket companies flouting the rules without suffering any consequences.
"This is a
significant development in the long running battle to ensure fairness for fans
but we’ll keep campaigning for the comprehensive set of measures needed to
finally end the big ticket rip off.”
