June 18, 200817 yr don't worry craig. the SNP have a new set of stupid proposals to cut drinking up here as well. from what i can remember, drink prices are going up by 35p a unit and u need to be 21 to buy in offies and supermarkets. i imagine pubs and clubs are next on their hit list. For once I agree with the SNP Responsible drinking is fine, chavs drinking themselves into oblivion and causing destruction and mayhem isn't so the best way to take chavs out of the equation is an end to cheap booze and making prices prohibitively high, yes that inconveniences responsible drinkers but if it is a way to stop young chavs getting hold of alcohol then so be it A pint of beer is like £4 in Sweden and other alcohol is very expensive yet you can walk the streets at night in safety and drink related crime is so low to be barely on the radar, the Scandanavian example should be bought in here
June 18, 200817 yr the problem is Chavfast and cheepo alcohopops like smirnoff ice and wkd wouldn't rise in price the cheap cider may be affected but... the stuff that our chavs get drunk on would be unaffected by the prices rises just normal people who fancy a tipple every now and again. Wine Whiskey Vodka you name it goes up in price. its rather $h!te, tho the 4pints for a £1 deal would be dead and that is great idea
