Headline from DM 13th March 2008:
Drinks tax soaks the middle class
Favourite quote:
'Alistair Darling was accused of penalising responsible middle class drinkers after announcing that the higher duty will add 4p to the price of a pint of beer...but just 3p on alcopops won't curb teen binges.'
And here is the evidence to prove it. Taken shortly after yesterday's budget, it shows a typical teenage drinking binge taking place in Hertfordshire whilst hapless, hard-working middle class families look on in horror at the thought they will have to pay an extra 8p for a bottle of Merlot. And more tax on their fucking four wheel drive cars.
