who actually pays for the extra policing required in the early mornings to cope with these drunks??
Shut the places at midnight and see what happens for a few months – unless the place pays for extra police -as they do for football matches etc..
More reasonably, those who are unable to take their drink and subsequently behave irresponsibly etc etc, should pay all the costs of the Police and local authority involvement in dealing with situations those drunkards create. If they had to pay the reasonable costs of dealing with their inability to drink and behave properly, instead of token fines and other costs currently levied, perhaps they might curb their drinking.
The sooner we rid society of the lads/lassess will be lads/lasses label the better for everyone.
