OK, we know that our masters have fuck all to do and here’s their latest little breeze. It’s being proposed that alcohol companies should not be allowed to sponsor music gigs and festivals as this is contributing to binge drinking - my arse!

The whole point of going to a festival is to get off your face and have a couple of days away from these interfering wankers and I don’t see many festival goers suddenly deciding to go tee-total just because the festival isn’t sponsored by a drink company. “IrnBru in the Park” anyone?

When will they realise that the answers to society’s problems will not be found by banning things?

As for the binge drinking thing - I remember well (quite well) my teens in the 60s and 70s and we were binge drinking then - so what’s new?

So just get off our backs and get on with doing the things we want you to do - fix the roads, sort out the bloody awful health service, bring back the belt in schools, hang fucking child murderers…
