In particular, Mr Horgan abhors what he sees as our national disease of gambling. While I wouldn’t be keen on casinos, having visited Las Vegas, I do enjoy an occasional flutter on the horses.

However, I would lay a large wager that most people have lost more money in the biggest gambling institution of them all, the stock market.
