Nanny State Mocks Puritans

Humourless alcohol puritans, Alcohol Focus Scotland, have put a poll on their website inviting people to vote on minimum pricing (which I have previously written about here).  So far, 66% have voted against, which, I would imagine, is not the response they wanted. Let's try to make that figure higher before they remove the poll through embarrassment.  You can vote here

Why humourless?  Read their response to the name Scottish brewery BrewDog gave to their new 1.1% beer.  They've called it Nanny State. 

I found the last link on the Southport Drinker's blog ~ thanks.

  1. The poll is now at 70% against. I expect it will be quietly removed and the result suppressed very soon.

I'm pleased when people comment upon my posts. Debate and disagreement are fine, but abuse and spam will be deleted straight away, so why bother?
You can be anonymous if you want; I simply ask that you don't do so as a cloak for attacks that you haven't got the nerve to put your name to.
