I want to complain about this content:
It's a rare occasion I agree with anything Greene King have to say, but on this I agree completely. The argument that this will "penalise sensible drinkers" is rubbish - the only booze sold at prices below this anyway isn't the sort of stuff you drink to enjoy the flavour, it's cheaply-made muck designed to get you as drunk as possible as quickly as possible. I once made the mistake of trying a can of "The Tramp's Friend", Carlsberg Special, and I can tell you, you would NEVER drink it for its flavour. And don't make the mistake of thinking this means more profit for the supermarkets - the only reason they sell cheap booze is to get people into their shops so they'll buy stuff with a big mark-up on it while they're there. So if anything it's going to HIT their profits.
