Isn't 'that' just the point though Nidge, not many countries on the continent have problems like we do - they don't binge drink and I don't understand why we do
Still, I don't think you can charge someone for being drunk over drug users, smokers, obese people - these are lifestyle choices people make and all cost the NHS £millions. Most trusts have a 'zero tolerence' policy where they can turn away anyone being abusive towards them. Of course if the person is in a serious state, then chances are they aren't going to be causing too much havoc.
