Drinks Firms Threatened
Government advisers yesterday claimed that drinks companies should be banned from sponsoring sports and music events to help tackle Britain’s binge-drinking culture.
They blamed irresponsible advertising and poor education for a surge in dangerous drinking, particularly among young women, warning ministers: “The industry spends about £200million annually on promoting a very misleading picture of the realities of alcohol consumption.”
Maybe then this means that there will be no cheap beer at the festivals. On the other hand it might mean that we get some decent beer in 2007!!
