What a load of f***ing b*ll**** sold as a "deterrent" to us feckless Jocks from drinking ourselves to death...
1/ it won't stop any alcoholics from drinking themselves to death.
2/ it'll save 60 lives in the first year? Oh yes....60 central belt "schemies"/"neds"(Chavs to you southerners) who probably live in the most deprived areas, in p*ss poor housing, no job, sh*t diet, no exercise and fat, smoke, take other forms of drugs anyway and will never get their pension cos they'll get stabbed in the bookies by wee Shuggie for knocking over his tin of Irn Bru....or be in the jail cos they are wee Shuggie...
F***ing tax on those that drink responsibly. Just hope ALL the proceeds go to the NHS or else it's just a scam tax....
England and Wales are getting it next.....but at 50p a "unit" that means your "strong beer" should come down to 25p a pint eh??
Hope the SWA challenge this it surely can't be legal as Euro law trumps any of our so called national laws anyway...we've handed over all our real law making!
Wonder how long it'll be before the central belt spivs start hiring a van and doing a booze cruise to Carlisle eh???
