More boozed up people running around engaging in late night mischief - that’s the key to solving Britain’s problems per Labour.

You know a country is in decline when it boosts its GDP with liquor, whores, and gambling.

Perhaps. But it appears that it is up to a bureaucrat in London to decide on what is the law of the land.

When we visited UK, we were surprised of the level of public drunkenness. It is kind of scary to get out at the evening, seeing all those drunks!

So labor solution is to increase supply!

Genuine!

The poor blokes who still have to get up early to go to work will face late night/early morning noise from pub carousing and then muslim calls to prayer from mosques very, very early in the mornings.

It looks to me that this is intentional. Drunks can be managed easy.
They do not complain, and all the life problems can be solved by good dose of ethyl alcohol!

Tzars and communists used similar solutions.
Life was unbearable, but it could be drowned in vodka.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
~ C. S. Lewis
(1898-1963), British novelist
“God in the Dock” (1948)

Nowhere in this entire stream of info is there given any idea about the proposed opening and closing times for the UK pubs. What gives here?
