Home Office minister James Brokenshire
"The majority of pubs and bars are well run businesses but the Government believes the system needs to be rebalanced in favour of the local communities they serve, with tougher action to crack down on the small number of premises who cause problems."

Translated: In a vain attempt to satisfy those who still read the Daily Mail and despite the statistics, the LGA Group lobby will be given yet more powers to further over-regulate and penalise the law-abiding majority in our local communities in a vain attempt to address the already illegal activities of a minority, which no one appears to have any idea on how to prevent.
