    Prohibition in Scotland soon ?

    Chan

    BBC News

    particularly worrying is the sentence

    "Mr MacAskill insisted the Scottish Government was not pro-prohibition or anti-alcohol, but was instead taking a stand against excessive drinking culture."
    If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.

    "Mr MacAskill said the perception of 'drinking to get drunk' should no longer be seen as acceptable."

      It's started! Smoking first. Now alcohol. Next: obesity. It stops, eventually, with a Farenheit 451 regime.

          Indeed! To paraphrase Spike Milligan, "Some people die of thirst; the Scots are born with one".

            Oh, has anybody got the figures on the vote to ban smoking in public places?
            Demo-what?
            Why not?
