A Ban On Alcohol Advertising.

WKD will suffer from this..

I didn't read the article(s), but I fail to see how 24 hour drinking has anything to do with underage drinkers.. Surely 14 year olds aren't out at 4am getting pissed in the clubs with their pocket money.

And of course the government wants to keep getting as much money as they can.. people shouldn't be shocked by this these days

wonder if liverpool will have to change sponsors now....

i drink brown ale, and thats not on adverts and when there is no brown ale i drink strongbow, there is adverts for that but it wont bother me so i couldnt give a fuck i tend to stick to drinks i know anyway,

well sailor jerrys is canny new and my fave drink and i havnt seen any adverts for that, i just got it when i was on a course up fasslane

nail on head

When will people realise that unless something is banned, shoddy little tactics like this aren't going to make a difference. Youngsters are always going to wanna drink alcohol as long as the older/other people around them do. And until getting drunk stops being fucking funny, I can't see anything changing

Give kids something to do other than drink booze and they wont drink booze..pretty simple really.

I knew when the anti smoking lobby triumphed that the next thing in their sights would be alcohol. They claim it's about health but it's not. It's about trying to stop any activity which renders the workforce less productive and less efficient drones for the capitalist machine. you watch. I guarantee in ten or 15 years time they will have brainwashed us all into making drinking something that 'cool' people don't do and drinkers will be as stigmatised as smokers are now. If you would have told me 15 years ago that smoking would be banned in pubs I wouldn't have believed it. Drinking will go the same way.

Like schoolwork, looking after there kids, 400 tv channels, PSP, PS3, Xbox,Gameboy, spliffs,E's.......PREMIERSHIP FOOTBALL!!!!!! What more do these fuckers need.

Its your fucking quiche eating fellow Guardian readers who are doing this. The Daily Mail is focused on Wheelie bins to give shit about Booze Britain.

This is not to you Forks but does anyone who is not driving do responsible drinking every fucker I know when out does binge drinking.

Iv never seen an advert for white strike or bella brusco, thats all i used to drink when i was a young un. Sometimes used to push the boat out and get 8 cans for a fiver if id got more pocket money that week..

who wants to do responsible drinkng? sometimes it's nice to just have a couple of pints down the pub and go home early . But sometimes when you are in the mood it's good to go and get off your kite. As long as you don't get violent I don't think it's anyone elses business if you want to do that. And Guardian readers get more pissed than Mail readers
IMO

No chance..Britain loves getting pissed too much to ever stop. Are you suggesting that pubs are goin to ban alcohol in the next 15 years?? I think the smoking ban was a good idea, your clothes dont stink after a night out, i work in a pub aswell it would do my head in if people were smoking while i was working.

I don't know how old you are but NO ONE who worked in a bar would have come out with that statement 15 years ago. You have bought into the whole anti smoking lobby worldview.

I think that pubs will be selling tea and coffee and strictly limited amounts of very expensive alcohol and that people who get drunk will be socially as looked down on as the smokers you despise.

" I think the drunkeness ban was a good idea, your clothes aren't covered in sick after a night out, I work in a pub as well it would do my head in if people were pissed while I was working"

never underestimate the power of indoctrination

Will the papers who slam booze Britain, the Binge Drinking Generation, Happy Hour Drinkers be so keen on the ban on alcohol advertising...........like fuck will they!!! There ailing revenue streams need this cash.
