Minimum pricing for alcohol has raised its
ugly head again:
Supermarkets are to be banned from selling wine, beer and spirits below a national "minimum price" under plans to be unveiled by ministers.
Only one paragraph in the Telegraph article hints at the problem:
Overall, their plans will be hard to introduce because they will run up against existing competition laws which ban unfair discrimination against firms which can supply goods at the lowest cost.
I wonder why. It's perfectly clear that this article is
deliberately ignoring the EU issue, despite it being
pointed out. It's time to do
'a Liverpool' to all the MSM.
