I'm not saying cut the lottery. There are two parts to the lottery. First, the company that puts the terminals in the shops, does the advertising and collects the dosh. After taking it's cut and paying out the prizes, it then pays out the 'good cause' money to the quango then distributes it.
It is this second part that needs abolishing and the money should then go direct to the cities, towns & villages according to how much has been spent in the first instance.
