Comments on the Government's Alcohol Strategy (March 2012): A view from Scotland

摘要

The Guardian's health correspondent, stated on 27th March; 'The government's unlikely embrace of minimum per-unit pricing of alcohol last week was the biggest moment for public health since Labour agreed in 2006 to ban smoking in public places' (Campbell, 2012). He praised the Prime Minister for being bold; 'He has also ignored the opposition of his health secretary'. Such fulsome praise is unusual from the Guardian newspaper.
