As loyal readers know, Nanny has being doing her best to vilify alcohol and those who drink it. This is kind of ironic given how much booze politicians, health professionals and the "socialist pretending" middle classes put away!
Anyhoo, the ONS has published a report on the boozing habits of adults in the UK in 2017:
- In Great Britain, 57.0% of Opinions and Lifestyle Survey respondents aged 16 years and over in 2017 drank alcohol, which equates to 29.2 million people in the population.
- Young people aged 16 to 24 years in Great Britain are less likely to drink than any other age group; when they do drink, consumption on their heaviest drinking day tends to be higher than other ages.
- 20.4% of survey respondents reported that they did not drink alcohol at all.
Needless to say Nanny and her tame media are quick to ignore this:
1 Nanny keeps banging on about increasing the number of "nudge" campaigns and health awareness projects targeting young drinkers.
2 The Times happily reports that a "third of under 25s now drink now alcohol (22.8% is not a third!).
In other words, whatever the reality, Nanny and her lackeys will continue to force her narrative and poisonous views down our throats!
