    I bet Joe will get in his little dig before the end that taxes haven't risen on spirits in the past few years :rolleyes:

    Ah yeah, I'd love to go back to the days where I was let into pubs underage with my friends, served 3 rounds of drink, and then when the pub gets busy, get your id checked and get kicked out after you've already spent a bomb.

    And I will drink at home if I bloody well want.

    So alcohol is now a prescribed drug? Now I have to pay my GP €60 to get a drink - bloody stealth taxes.

    At last a guy is talking sense, pubs are going to supermarkets to buy cheap drink.

    This is taking the piss. Publicans can control the amount a person drinks?

    Every pub I know has its barflys, the publicans know well that they sit in the pub from 12.00 to 9.00pm and drink away the families social welfare money. I've never seen them being refused, totally two faced argument.

    VFI now want to tackle alcohol abuse in the home by encouraging them to go to the pub? Nuts.

    Let me tell you this...price will not stop the abuse of alcohol.
    Any alcoholic I know, price was the last thing on their mind...

    [edit] actually nevermind alcoholics....price doesn't deter anyone...if it gets more expensive you simply drink more spirits to bulk up the beer buzz.

    Talking about the abuse of alcohol? so the answer is to spend a €5 on a pint instead of 80c on a bottle of bud..lol

    these lads are a bunch of jokers.

    They're only worried about people abusing alcohol outside their pubs.

    Our traditional pub culture is being destroyed by stay at home drinkers.
    Look what you're missing!

    4 bottles of Heineken in a Dublin City Centre bar = €20+
    20 bottles of Heineken for home consumption = €19.99
    Listening to publicans logic on Liveline = Priceless
