So has the country been torn apart....
 

....by drink fuelled thugs binging until the early hours and smashing everything up??

Or did the first weekend of late night licensing laws go ok??

It appears that there isn't much news on the subject anymore, the papers seem to have forgotten about it all of a sudden

Afternoon UB :)

I hear it was a 'quieter' weekend than normal. made use of the laws myself :D

Looks like New Labour got something else right then?? :D :D

Scoobynet salutes you Labour .... you stand by what you are doing and all the doom mongers get shown up :D

Based on just one weekend's experience in my home town, people seemed a lot more relaxed than usual, there were no groups of numpties rushing to get p!ssed before last orders anyway:thumb:

Not quite sure of the "salutes you" , but it is one of the rules that suits me (being in that 20-25 thats goes out a lot bracket)

I was out on Friday and Saturday night. There was definitely a more chilled out atmosphere out and about. We ended up staying in one place until 1:30am (when they were closing) and people had just been slowly drifting out the door as it got later.

You would sort of think that after 8 years of tryng they would have to get something right. I hope we don't have to suffer them for another 8 years before they do something else useful

the fact is that most people pretty much want to go to sleep by about 3am anyway, just let them get tired and sleepy and they will not fight lol

Pretty much business as usual in my locale over the weekend

Take a million monkeys, sitting at a million typewriters and eventually you will realise that you are standing in the middle of the public sector ;)

Certainly more broken glasses and smashed bottles than usual around Guildford on Monday morning. As for whether it went 'ok' I guess you would have to ask the poor sods who live close by these sh*thole pubs or the Police and Emergency services all of which have to live with the consequences of the latest New Labour folly.
