Stars Group to acquire remaining stake in BetEasy Topics: Sports betting Strategy Email Address 3rd December 2019 | By contenteditor AddThis Sharing ButtonsShare to LinkedInLinkedInShare to FacebookFacebookShare to TwitterTwitter The Stars Group (TSG) is set to take full control of BetEasy after agreeing a deal to acquire the remaining 20% interest in the Australian sports betting operator for AU$151m (£79.5m/€93.3m/US$103.3m).TSG, which already holds an 80% stake in BetEasy, said it expects to complete the purchase within 90 days of publishing its results for the year ended 31 December, 2020, or finalising its merger with Flutter Entertainment.The purchase price will be settled in cash, unless it takes place after the Flutter merger, in which case Flutter could opt to settle in cash, ordinary shares or a combination of both.As part of the acquisition deal, TSG has also agreed to pay AU$100m to settle the previously disclosed performance payment under the terms of its purchase of the initial 80% stake in BetEasy. This payment could have reached AU$232m, having been subject to performance conditions related to BetEasy’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation.In addition, under the agreement, TSG will now repay AU$$56.9m of outstanding BetEasy minority shareholder loans.“The launch of BetEasy through our acquisitions of CrownBet and William Hill Australia in 2018 created one of the leading operators in Australia and increased our exposure to a high-growth regulated market,” TSG chief executive Rafi Ashkenazi said.Matt Tripp, currently chief executive of BetEasy, will provide ongoing leadership as non-executive president of BetEasy from 1 January, 2020.Andrew Menz, who was previously BetEasy’s director of strategy and regulatory affairs, will take on the role of CEO. Menz also spent time as legal and corporate affairs director at Betfair Australia and helped to establish Responsible Wagering Australia, a trade association for the country’s online wagering industry.Trip said: “I’m pleased to see our long-term succession plan come to fruition. Andrew Menz brings deep commercial and regulatory experience which leaves BetEasy in a strong position to continue delivering profitable growth.“I know that this business, which we founded back in 2013, is in very capable hands with a strong executive team and the backing of The Stars Group, who have been terrific partners and global leaders in this industry.”Ashkenazi added: “Matt Tripp’s entrepreneurial spirit and vision has guided BetEasy since he founded the business and we are glad he will oversee the transition as non-executive president.” The Stars Group (TSG) is set to take full control of BetEasy after agreeing a deal to acquire the remaining 20% interest in the Australian sports betting operator for AU$151m (£79.5m/€93.3m/US$103.3m). Current BetEasy chief executive Matthew Tripp will shift to the role of non-executive president of the business from January 2020, with director of strategy and regulatory affairs promoted to serve as his replacement.

Buy-to-let investors really have had their backs to the wall recently.On the plus side, rents growth has continued to pick up, reflecting a huge shortage of available rental properties. Unfortunately, increased costs mean that landlords have been unable to make the most of these increases. Indeed, recent rent hikes have simply reflected the passing on of growing expenditures onto the shoulders of tenants.5G is here – and shares of this ‘sleeping giant’ could be a great way for you to potentially profit!According to one leading industry firm, the 5G boom could create a global industry worth US$12.3 TRILLION out of thin air…And if you click here we’ll show you something that could be key to unlocking 5G’s full potential…In fact, data shows that landlord returns have slowed to a crawl in recent times. And it’d be foolish to expect rampant cost growth to cool any time soon.Recent cost changes reflect government attempts to free up homes for first-time buyers by forcing landlords out. Signs that Whitehall is failing to get near its home creation targets have only increased this speculation, too. Around 241,000 new homes were created in 2019, up annually but still a long way off the government’s target of 300,000.Our survey says…And I’m not alone in fearing that things could get worse for Britain’s landlords, either. A survey from Simply Business illustrates perfectly how sentiment is deteriorating across the sector.Of 800 buy-to-let investors that it recently surveyed, the insurance broker says a whopping 26% indicate they are planning to sell one or more rental properties in 2020. Some 82% said that they wouldn’t be buying new property this year, too. Compare this to the 13% who say that they intend to expand their bricks-and-mortar portfolios.“Landlords around the country are telling us that government reforms, tax increases, and rising rental costs are forcing them to put their investments up for sale,” says Bea Montoya, chief operating officer at Simply Business.She adds that “ongoing political and economic uncertainty hasn’t been providing landlords with the confidence they need to stay in the market”.8% dividend yields!If you want to invest in property, why bother with buy-to-let? The London stock market allows you to put your money into bricks-and-mortar via a plethora of ways. Long-term share investing also doesn’t require the same level of hands-on care that landlords have to contend with.Consider the investment case for Cairn Homes (LSE: CRN), for example. This Irish housebuilder is riding the colossal shortage of new homes in Ireland to deliver fat profits growth, as trading details released this month show.Revenues leapt 29% in 2019 to €434m, it said, a result that pushed operating profits 28% higher to €68m. The supply and demand imbalance in the market is keeping average selling prices ticking higher (rising to €372,000 last year excluding VAT, versus €366,000 in 2018). And Cairn is turbocharging production rates to make the most of this fertile market. It registered 1,820 closed and forward sold last time.For 2020 City analysts expect earnings at Cairn to rise 28%, leaving it trading on a rock-bottom forward price-to-earnings growth (or PEG) ratio of 0.5 times. Combine this with a monster 8% dividend yield and I reckon this is a firm that offers plenty of investor upside. I’d much rather put my money to work here than with buy-to-let.

Farmworker wearing bandana during pandemic.It’s not just COVID-19 that’s racing like wildfire across the U.S. It’s unemployment. The number of newly jobless workers has climbed to an astounding 26 million. That is due to coronavirus-related layoffs or furloughs caused by business closures or contractions. Added to the number of already unemployed people, the total is 33 million, the highest number since 1934 during the Great Depression. That means one in five workers is out of work!Job losses have particularly impacted low-income, service sector, young, disabled, immigrant and women workers. African-American and Latinx workers are being disproportionately hard hit. Already existing inequities and oppression have intensified. Some 26 million claims for unemployment benefits have been filed since March 15. On March 27, Congress enacted the CARES Act, a $2.2 trillion coronavirus stimulus package. It allocated a one-time $1,200 “stimulus” check for most adults, with $500 more per child. A weekly federal payment of $600 was added to state unemployment benefits through July 31, and “gig” workers were deemed eligible.The financial benefits are not, however, quickly getting to workers who desperately need them. Lines at food banks are growing. Many people who need stimulus funds the most are still waiting for them. Stumbling blocks throughout the process are preventing millions from applying for or getting unemployment checks. By design, many states have made it difficult for the jobless to get benefits.Benefits delayed or denied!Only 14.6 percent of eligible New York workers have successfully filed for benefits; the figure is 23.6 percent in Michigan and 17 percent in Florida. Only 10 states have approved benefits for previously ineligible gig workers, even though the stimulus bill provided for them. Glitches and denials are rampant. (New York Times, April 25)Once again, the people of Puerto Rico, whom the Trump administration denied necessary aid after hurricanes ravaged the islands — and who pay taxes — are owed these payments by Washington. Yet, San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz has reported that as of April 25 no one there has received a stimulus payment, while 130,000 applications for unemployment benefits and some for food stamps have gone unanswered.The stimulus bill was a bonanza for corporations, which got $500 billion, but millions of hardworking undocumented workers got nothing. These indispensable workers from Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa and elsewhere pay taxes. They are working in homes, grocery stores, factories, farms and hospitals during this pandemic. Yet, they are barred from obtaining unemployment benefits, stimulus checks, food stamps and government health coverage, including for coronavirus testing and treatment.The United Farm Workers explains: “$9.5 billion [of the stimulus package] is going to the agricultural sector, [but] it’s not clear if any of those funds will support farmworkers taking risks [laboring in the fields] to put food on our tables. At least 50 percent are undocumented, so they won’t get the relief payments. Even their citizen children are left out. “They are told they are ‘essential’ workers, but are not receiving ‘essential’ benefits.” They are now saddled with costly child care, grocery and transportation expenses. The union stresses the government should pay them hazard pay! (ufw.org, March 30)Left out of New Deal labor lawsFarmworkers and domestic workers have historically been excluded from basic legal protections. The New Deal’s National Labor Relations Act of 1935, which recognized unionization and basic labor rights excluded agricultural and domestic workers, many of them African American and Latinx. Jim Crow policies prevailed, promoted by racist Southern politicians. Three years later, farmworkers and domestic workers were excluded from the Fair Labor Standard Act’s minimum wage and overtime pay provisions. States enacted similar policies.Of the 3 million domestic workers, 90 percent are women, overwhelmingly Black, Latinx and im/migrants. Due to entrenched reactionary federal and state governmental policies, these workers have endured low pay, miserable working conditions without benefits, sexual assaults and bigotry. Laws barring workplace racist discrimination and sexual harassment do not cover them.Due to struggle and advocacy, nine states and Seattle enacted a Domestic Workers Bill of Rights that prohibits racial discrimination and sexual misconduct on the job. But 41 states do not guarantee workplace civil rights protections. A national Domestic Bill of Rights Act has been submitted to Congress, backed by the National Domestic Workers Alliance.The CARES Act grants domestic workers both unemployment and stimulus checks, provided they have Social Security numbers and file income tax returns. However, those who are undocumented, though laid off due to the pandemic, are ineligible for CARES benefits, severance, sick pay and health coverage. They have no legal protections.A lawsuit has been filed against the xenophobic Trump administration for denying stimulus payments to the 1.2 million people married to taxpaying undocumented immigrants.

Raphael Warnock, the first ever Black senator from Georgia.Warnock is senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, the famed church of Rev. Martin Luther King’s family, esteemed for its long history of civil rights activism.Billionaire Kelly Loeffler, appointed by Republican Governor Brian Kemp last year to the Senate seat, had launched a vicious ad campaign, labeling Warnock a “radical,” a “socialist,” a “hater of America” and a “supporter of a convicted cop killer.” That last charge referred to Warnock’s strong advocacy for Troy Davis, a Black man from Savannah, Ga., whose racist trial and death sentence had gained international condemnation from hundreds of thousands of people, including the Pope. Despite evidence Davis was innocent, Georgia executed him on Sept. 21, 2011.Jon Ossoff was the other winning Democrat running for a Senate seat. He was also red-baited by incumbent Sen. David Perdue, a wealthy businessman and cousin of former Gov. Sonny Perdue, now Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture. Ossoff, the head of a documentary film company, was described as being in the pay of the Chinese Communist Party because of royalties paid to his company for a film shown on Chinese television. Perdue ads depicted Ossof, who is Jewish, with an elongated nose — an anti-semitic trope.Both Republican candidates had tied themselves securely to Trump’s accusation that “rigged” elections were responsible for his defeat in the presidential election in Georgia.Both Democratic candidates, on the other hand, emphasized control of COVID, financial support for unemployed and impoverished workers and their families, living wages, healthcare and education. Their television ads showed them at demonstrations and rallies for social justice. However, they denied any support for defunding the police.Back in 2018, Stacey Abrams, an African-American, had run for governor on the Democratic Party ticket. She narrowly lost to Brian Kemp. She recognized the importance of going beyond the official Party apparatus. She engaged the many grassroots and community organizations that had mobilized millions against police violence and low wages, and for healthcare and immigrant rights, to become the ground troops for electoral victory.Sustained outreach to young people, communities of color, women, LGBTQ2S+, gig and other low-wage workers resulted in hundreds of thousands of first-time voters who want systemic change and who used this election to say that.Both parties serve capitalismIt is reported that some $833 million was spent on this run-off to bring thousands of Democratic Party workers to Georgia, to pay for the non-stop TV ads, the flyers stuffed in mailboxes, the endless robo calls and texts and more.The oft-repeated explanation for all this is control of the Senate. If Perdue and Loeffler had won, Republicans would have held a 52-48 majority.Now, however, with Warnock and Ossoff in the U.S. Senate, there is a 50-50 split, with Vice President Kamala Harris a potential tie breaker.But let’s look at a class truth. Both Democrat and Republican parties are capitalist political parties which support the for-profit system and are united in maintaining U.S. global and political domination. It must be noted that in the midst of the massive unemployment and death from COVID, most Democrats and Republicans in Congress had no problem authorizing the largest military budget ever to ensure the superior armed might of U.S. imperialism.The Senate in particular remains a chamber of huge wealth with few members of color or women. Their ties go deep to the biggest corporations, banks, oil and gas interests, pharmaceutical companies and other elements of the ruling class.Tens of millions voted to get Trump out of office, and unprecedented millions in Georgia voted to get rid of right-wing Perdue and Loeffler, in hopes of gaining some relief from the unrelenting scourge of the pandemic. And Democrats may feel the pressure to offer a modicum of change to maintain their positions in office. Certainly, the energized grassroots organizations will continue to fight for their demands.The class truth, however, is that the capitalist, for-profit system will never provide the people all they need and what is rightfully theirs. We need system change!Build a workers’ world!FacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare thisFacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare this read more
One of the main reasons I send this letter is because I have been reading Workers World for approximately the last four years, and I’m not sure if journalists at WW are aware that certain words/phrases may be misleading and/or unknowingly aid in keeping “prisoners” uninformed.Prime example: The overseers use words like “Inmate Employment Office,” “Work Assignment,” “Hourly Wage,” “Raise,” “[no] Overtime Pay,” etc., to give the illusion that they see us as something other than slaves.Even the words prison and prisoner are misnomers since approximately one-half century ago, their own experts advised that no new institutions for adults should be built, and existing institutions for juveniles should be closed. This is based on their finding that prisons, reformatories have achieved nothing but an overwhelming failure, and overwhelming evidence proves such institutions create crime rather than prevent it.Labeling us “prisoners” misleads one to think there was some legitimate need for our “confinement” instead of showing it’s all about greed and economics. And it helps hide the fact that Lincoln never ended slavery; they simply remodeled plantations and renamed them penitentiaries.I’m not imprisoned, I’m enslaved. I’m not in a prison, I’m on a plantation. We’re not just workers, we’re being worked.And please understand, this letter is not an act of criticism; I only wished to show the words we choose to paint with determine whether the picture ends up being 2-D or 3-D.I believe it was in one of your articles that it said: “This fight won’t be won in the courts, but instead it will be won in the streets,” or something to that effect and in line with what Audre Lorde said, “The Master’s tools will never dismantle the Master’s house.”And I understand that sometimes we have to articulate to people on the level they understand, but the masses likely don’t realize we’re slaves if the majority of “prisoners” don’t even recognize it.I had to pull out the U.S. Constitution and show numerous “prisoners” before they would believe they’re slaves.And Harriet Tubman said: “I could have helped free a lot more slaves if only I could have made them realize that they were slaves.”Only when I realized that I was a slave did I become mentally free. Now these overseers will have to kill me before I pick any more cotton or build his pyramids.Thank you for your attention in this matter and all the help you provide in giving a voice to the voiceless.Sincerely in Solidarity,Abdul ElshabazzSCI Rockview, PennsylvaniaFacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare thisFacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare this read more
