National Lottery Winners Show More Spin Than Roulette
THE National Lottery press release suggests that you can increase your chances of winning. How? By buying more tickets? Perhaps. But also by living in Medway, the Kent locale that includes the towns Rochester, Chatham and Gillingham.
In this region, there is one lottery top prize winner for very £6,119 adults. That tops Ilford, where there is one winner to every 6,838 losers. “TOP JACKSPOTS,” says the Mirror.
Says a spokesperson for the Lottery: “Everyone would love it if there was a formula for success but there’s obviously no simple answer as to why Medway is the luckiest area.”
But while the Mirror and Sun say Medway tops the lucky lotto list (in order: Ilford, Romford, Newcastle upon Tyne, Dartford, Bradford, Teeside, Sunderland, Hull and Perth), the Belfast Telegraph announces: “Figures released today revealed Belfast was joint third with Sheffield – behind Birmingham and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne – in a league table for scooping top tier or jackpot prizes in both the Lottery draws and Scratchcard games.”
Do they?
On the This Is Swansea website, we learn: “Cardiff continues to be one of the UK’s top five luckiest areas for the highest number of millionaires since the Lottery was launched, with Birmingham claiming the top spot.”
The Scotsman notes: “More National Lottery cash has been paid out in Glasgow that any other part of Scotland, according to figures which show it has the largest share of winnings in the country.”
North-East tops the lucky league, says the Northern Echo.
It might be nothing to do with luck and everything to do with PR spin…
