hello to flipc
actually, the last 500 years? I come over all English gung ho' patriotic with every new report/attack.
Our streets filled with terrible, culturally un-evolved English people falling over in a pissed up stupor? We're merely reconnecting with our wild, pagan past. Or, at least, I think that was my last slurred excuse issued from which ever lamp post I was clinging onto just before I fell into . . . . .
Oh, I mean, sensibly discussed at a dinner party of dentists.

Hello back at ya ;-)
1606 Parliament passes an Act 'for oppressing the odious and loathsome sin of drunkenness' of course the 'problem' existed way before that heck you can go back to the Roman conquest which occurred during one of their party phases if you want to. It seems any group coming here ends up requiring much hearty grog just to cope; veni vidi vino.
To be blunt about every century or so someone pops up complaining about drunkenness in the UK, much tutting, frowning, and finger-wagging is done; laws are occasionally passed or amended and another 100 years finds nothing much has changed. *sniff* makes you so proud.
