we're drinking less alcohol now than we did in 1900. and as for the minimum unit price on alcohol - its a smoke screen - its illegal under EU law, the Greeks tried it with tobacco and had to reverse it Happy to help with a few facts! :) |
A question to understand your facts - what would be the price of a UK pack of cigarettes without any government price control?
It may not be a minimum price - however pricing can easily be set by the use of excise duty of a licensed product. |
