Rejected petition REMOVE TAX OF ALCOHOL IN PUBLIC HOUSES AND REPLACE IT WITH TAX ON ALCOHOL IN SUPERMARKETS

More details

With the rise in under age drinking and drinking related violence due to cheap alcohol in supermarkets I propose that tax should be removed from alcohol in public houses where drinkers can me monitored and controlled and this levy moved to and placed on all alcohol sales in shops and supermarkets.

This I beleive will help to control under age drinking and drink related crime due to the availability of cheep alcohol in shops and supermarkets.

This will also help to boost the economy of our failing public houses.
