Re: Plans for minimum alcohol price

cant see this ever being successful as a minimum price under competition laws especialy if there were differences between supermarkets and clubs

as a tax it may be doable

but in either case i cant see it stopping the problem drinkers

they take hospital hand sanitizer for goodness sake to sake thier desires

see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7920576.stm

as to clubbers you more than likely just see an increase in people taking in pre bought imported drink or just using drugs to increase the effect

better would be enforcing the laws we have that are mostly ignored

  • It is illegal to serve alcohol to someone who is drunk
  • It is illegal to allow a customer to become intoxicated on your premises
  • It is illegal to serve customers under the legal drinking age of 18.
there should be at busy premises 1 drink per person at bar rule, it may cause cues give them longer to sober up though lol
