UK alcohol tax changes: will your favourite drink cost more or less?

  1. They don’t seem too unreasonable tbh.

    Though personally seems simpler to me to just tax volume x strength.

  2. Given that my favourite tipple is turps, I think I’m good.

  3. This is an utter con. Nothing will be taxed less. Only less than they were originally planning to tax it.

    How on earth this is being presented by any other means than a big billboard reading ‘RISHI SUNAK IS LYING TO YOU’ is beyond me.

    “But cider is going down by a penny in pubs” oh sure I’m sure it’ll be passed on. I’m equally sure we’ll even notice a difference of a penny. That means we get one “free” pint of cider for every 600 we drink. Good deal! 👍
