Rejected petition Allow “off sales” for licensed businesses during lockdown

We need the government to change the ruling during lockdown(s) to allow “off sales” from licensed businesses as it stands businesses are allowed to deliver food but unable to deliver a bottle of beer to wash it down , that would have to be bought from a supermarket forcing you out during a lockdown

In a time when every penny counts in helping the hospitality sector survive I fear there will be lot more businesses going to the wall
