They can close all the pubs for all I care. I don’t need alcohol to live.

But unlike the holier than thou anti-smoking brigade who in their selfish arrogance pushed for and got smoking banned in enclosed public spaces, whilst driving around and polluting the atmosphere in their cars, I believe in live and let live as for as booze is concerned.

I won’t shed any tears for the closure of a pub, but I won’t rejoice either.

It would be poetic justice if all pubs, clubs etc were closed, although like in the smokers’ case many innocent people would get caught up in the issue.
