Pub Opening Licensing Hours Law.

The idea

hReverse the law on when the pubs have to close. All we see on the news etc is the massive problem of binge drinking/ violence and under-age drinking. At present in this country we have 24hr opening hours. The licensing laws were changed by the previous labour government to allow longer opening hours… but to date all we hear from the government is moaning about drunks and under age drinkers in our towns and citys… 

 

Gone are the days when last orders were called and the pubs were closed at 11pm, and gone are the days when the majority of our city streets were deserted at 3am in the morning. ….now? all you hear and see on the news is violence and murders in the early hours, people who have got themselves drunk then end up fighting.. I have seen people in my town sitting outside the pub drinking at 9AM!!!!!!!   

And who is to blame for this?????  THE GOVERNMENT!!! pure and simple…. extending the opening hours was shear madness!!!!  REVERSE IT!!!

 

Why is it important?

Extending the opening hours was like letting every person in the country have a gun without a licence, then start moaning when people get shot!! This country should get a grip, sit back and look at the problem AND the cause.. Reverse the pub opening hour BACK to as they were 10 years ago (when pubs closed at 11pm) This would save a lot of expense and free up police time to deal with real crime, it would also solve many other problems related to drink.
