		<description>Brighton city centre is dreadful on Fridays and Saturday nights as it&#039;s full of drunken yobs, throwing up and being rowdy. If increasing prices makes these youths drink more responsibly then I am all for stopping retailers charging so little for booze. It&#039;s not the pubs, it&#039;s the supermarkets we should be blaming. These kids get tanked up at home before their night of drinking even begins.</description>

		<description>I support the concept of Minimum Pricing but do urge caution on its implementation - should it ever be - that it isn&#039;t just another Knee-Jerk Labour response to alcohol.  The issue of Minimum Pricing isn&#039;t necessarily that of curbing binge drinking as even if you brought in a minimum 50p per unit price it wouldn&#039;t actually see supermarket prices rise that dramatically.  It would, however, force the off-trade to sell at a more responsible price, rather than using alcohol as a loss-leader.  It might also make pre-loading a less attractive concept, although this is as measurable as binge drinking...  Minimum Pricing, however, would make bars, pubs and clubs take more responsibility in their offers rather than &#039;ladies drink all night for a fiver&#039; and similar.  The concept of Minimum Pricing shouldn&#039;t be to penalise the drinker and shouldn&#039;t be implemented to force the price of a pint up in a pub, but it should be used to make certain unscrupulous retailers sell more responsibly.  At the end of the day, though, it will just mean that supermarkets will still be able to sell cheaply, whilst making more money on the product than they currently do, so they still win!</description>
