This looks fascinating.

I work in local gov economic development.The economy dependent on revenue from alcohol sales. It’s convenient for the govt to ignore this issue. Some strategic long term thinking needed to change drinking culture from the top - when they’re not drinking in Westminster bars! Therein lies the problem

Read this report about how society is now affected by #alcohol and recommendations to improve through enablers to change. #prevention & #education towards #sobriety is crucial. #economicdevelopment must discuss alternatives to drinking culture #socialeconomy

The NHS shows how alcohol impairs decision-making. Why is it still allowed in Westminster? In local government, I'd be sacked for drinking @ work, yet alcohol is deeply ingrained in political culture.

This is such a great appointment. My bipolar is mostly stable since stopping drinking. No coincidence there! No medical professional ever discussed drinking with me before I stopped. Is the revenue from alcohol sales higher than the expenditure linked to alcohol problems? #sobriety #AF #bipolar

Great article by @gracedent.bsky.social about the gift of sobriety at Christmas. It’s great that more public figures are talking about their positive sober stories.
