Re: corner shop
As you said, depends where and who is in it
As with anything there is always someone to spoil a good thing
I just don't think it fair at all, taking away being able to drink at home from loads that do no harm, just because certain people, whether it be the shop assistants or shop owners, parents of those children, the children themselves or adults that are buying on behalf of the youngsters
These are the ones to be punished, I know punishing costs money but all the same, if they want this kind of behaviour to stop then they should enforce something that would certainly make them think twice
Someone was using Challenge 30 (off licence) they seem to think that works really well, if they introduce something like this, then instead of giving 2 chances?? (is that what it is? can't remember) then licence revoked, they could just revoke licence as there could be no mistake as to selling underage when they have to look 30
For the parents/adults/sales assistants, aswell as a fine (which should be put to something useful, don't know what it is used for now though) they should be made to give back to the community, for not being responsible enough and allowing children alcohol
