I think, maybe, that they are hoping that young people will not go out to socialise, if no alcohol is available. Of course, it won’t stop them drinking at home and who knows whether they will obey the ‘household bubble’ rules.What is the benefit of banning alcohol totally? I know here they said it had to be sold with a meal, but I think part of that logic was to help restaurateurs; when numbers were so limited they didn’t want someone to take up a precious spot just to nurse a beer for an hour.
Our village pub has a few elderly gents ( late 80/90s) who turn up at the pub every day, without fail, at midday. They sit at the bar, chat to everyone and nurse their one pint ( unless someone buys them a round) until 2pm. It’s probably the only social interaction they have all day. People like this seem to be overlooked.
