# because
there's a lot of buzz around them currently so it's deemed a sensibkle way for the government to seem to be doing good *healthier peoples* while making money.

it's like boris banning drinkingon public transport... binge drinking is a big thing so i's seen to be tackling the £drinking culture' but he isn't he's just prohibiting it and prohibition generally breeds contempt. and this goes to enforce the culture rather than stem it. *in my opinion.. but my opinion is generally hellishly liberal*

# With the drinking thing,
The loud shouty pissed wanker was not stopped before and will not be now. All that the bill will do is let the police arrest teenagers.

They have banned drinking on the grass outside my workplace and the filth have taken bottles of cider from tramps and poured it out - but there was a champagne lunch their on Friday for one of the local legal partnerships.

hmm!

good old fashioned irony.

proibition doesn't work, has never worked, will never work.

the banning of alcohol in america.. all that produced was Al Capone. although i'd giggle if some how 1920's gangsters helps smuggle alcohol for a fee on to a train.
