What gets me is the 3p on strong cider. That's really tackling the nations drink problem as far as the youth /binge drinking culture goes innit!!. I can just see the kids on the estate were I used to live sitting in the bus stop almost in tears struggling to get another 3p together so they can buy their bottle of White Lightening! or Frosty Jack's. Oh how my heart bleeds for them!!
