Chilled by the thought of Dawn Primarolo reckoning that "it was time to move on from the battle to clear the streets of binge-drinking youths and tackle the drinking culture hidden behind the sitting room curtains", I was going to post on the latest bout of moral puritanism health advice about drinking at home. However, Nick Cohen has made the point far more elegantly than I could here. His horror-struck title says it all - "That's seven glasses a WEEK, ladies and gentlemen, not a day". Cheers Nick.
At first they came for the smokers but I did not speak out as I did not smoke. Then they came for the binge drinkers but I said nothing as I did not binge. Now they have an obesity strategy.
