Mannix Flynn: Ban on late-night shots needed to control the ‘madness and noise’

  1. Because folk drunk on cider/beer/vodka/whatever don’t cause any madness or noise?

  2. So rather than trying to encourage a mature drinking culture that lessens this type of behaviour just ban shots and it magically fixes things.

    Short term thinking at its finest.

  3. I have quite a bit of time for Mannix Flynn, but I’d have to respectfully disagree with him regarding his proposal of banning shots after 2 AM. We’d be better off encouraging a more mature drinking culture in Ireland instead of just banning shots after 2 AM. Besides, most people who order shots at 2 AM are already drunk.

  4. So it be just like last orders someone ordering 30 shots in one go

  5. Ah of course, it’s the shots and not the copious amounts of cocaine being consumed in any given pub on a Saturday.

  6. >At the age of 20, Mannix went for a drink and he didn’t come back for 20 years. He became a notorious hell-raiser, picking fights, doing drugs, having to be bailed out of police stations by theatrical friends. “I hold the record in Dublin for previous convictions and for the number of pubs I’ve been barred from,” he says. “I’m barred from pubs I didn’t even go into.”

  7. Fuck me all that’s going on and he chooses this crusade. What a clown, theres a bang of €9 substantial meal off of this

  8. He likes banning stuff. Takeaway pints, amplifiers, seagulls, homeless people,

  9. In his mind it’s only young ones who take shots, his aul mates who sit in a pub from 1pm to 11pm on a Sunday nursing pints can’t be part of the problem.

  10. They need to ban the 3 for 100 deals also this is destroying our youth
