Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 February 2017. It occurred during Backbench debate on Alcohol Harm.


Alcohol Harm

I congratulate the hon. Lady on everything that she has said. In the mid-1970s, a Home Office report showed that Britain had the second lowest level of alcohol consumption in the whole of Europe; we have risen rapidly while the rest of Europe has been coming down. They have learned from their previous mistakes, and we ought to as well.
