The increasingly unpopular left-wing Labour Party government in Britain is reportedly looking to limit how long pubs can stay open at night to supposedly confront alcohol-related costs to the country’s socialised healthcare system.
Pubs are apparently in the crosshairs for Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s government, with Public Health Minister Andrew Gwynne is said to have told ministers that Downing Street is considering plans that would see a “tightening up the hours of operation” of bars and pubs.
Despite the industry continuing to struggle in the wake of draconian coronavirus lockdowns, on top of the already onerous regulations and high taxes levied against them by the state, Gwynne argued that placing further limits on pubs would cut down on anti-social behaviour and reduce burden on the National Health Service (NHS), The Telegraph reports.

In the USA, servers are told not to serve intoxicated people.
You can bet the Muslims are behind this.
The UK would be better off if Parliament locked up early and MPs went home.
It sounds like the government is becoming paranoid and wants to eliminate places where people might gather to criticize them. I think they are starting to fear their own people.
“The UK would be better off if Parliament locked up early and MPs went home.”
As we would be better off if Congress was locked up early and congress-CRITTERS went home.
We’re both doomed if we keep obeying the leftist jokes that represent us.
The take away here is...
If the GOV controls health care. They control EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING in one way or another is healthcare..
There is nothing a person can do that is not, in one way or another, healthcare.
We’ll see if Andy Capp puts up much of a fight. At his age, I dunno.
The pubs will pay tens of millions for the re-election of labour politicians who will agree to change their minds.
That will also limit the taxes on alcohol sales...................
On both sides of the Atlantic, when some SOB abuses something, government takes it out on you.

Well we all know how well things like this work. Pubs close....no one drinks right? Hello? Anyone? Bueller?
Exactly! And that's what this is all about - totalitarian government.
So... closing the gay bath houses due to disease-related costs to the country's socialised healthcare system?
...and closing the alien invader pipeline due to disease and crime related costs to the country's socialised healthcare system?
Boston’s Green Dragon Tavern: The Headquarters of the Revolution
In a letter to Thomas Jefferson in 1815, John Adams wrote, “The Revolution was in the minds of the people, and this was effected, from 1760 to 1775, in the course of fifteen years before a drop of blood was drawn at Lexington.”
Long before the famed “shot heard round the world,” a revolution was taking place in the hearts and minds of the colonists as they wrestled with their place in the British empire.
At the center of it all? Boston, the “Cradle of Liberty.”
And tucked away in the North End of that peninsular city, right on the edge of Mill Pond, stood a two-story Georgian with a metal dragon hung above the door: the Green Dragon Tavern. Former Secretary of State Daniel Webster claimed the Green Dragon Tavern was the “Headquarters of the Revolution.”
How did a local bar with very little to do with the colonies’ efforts during wartime earn such an esteemed title?
I was thinking exactly the same thing. It is just another form of curfew to keep the deplorables from talking amongst themselves.
