Quote:
Conservative MP Tracey Crouch said alcohol labelling should include written warnings rather than dramatic pictures of diseases associated with alcohol abuse. "It is about raising everyone's awareness rather than trying to shock anyone into not drinking," she said.


Like it has worked in smoking!

No one will read the wording that will be on the back - its a classic example of being seen to do somthing without actually doing something

Possible warnings they could have ;)

Warning: May make Doner kebabs appear to be a foodstuff.

First of all stick big unattractive labels on it then, when nothing happens, ban it from pubs and restaurants. ;)

I thought you couldn't enter agreements while your judgement is impaired?

Quite. A one-nighter I can understand *cough* but marrying someone? You'd have to be very drunk, for a very long time.

Who's going to read that small print? Maybe someone who's stoned, but then it's a different kind of warning you're needing.
