So. The tories have ditched the absurd idea to cut the drink driving limit - allegedly so that rural pubs do not end up closing down.Well. In all fairness, they got there in the end but the logic is only peripheral.
This Blog has argued for a long time that lowering the limit is plain silly as it makes not one whit of difference to the hardened drink drivers but brings countless ordinary people problems for having had a second portion of sherry trifle!
Once again - we have glimpsed the horrors of 'punishing the majority to get at the lawless minority'.
One thing though. It IS a volte face by Cameron & cronies who had warmly embraced the idea in the last couple of years.
Still as Bill would've put it, 'All's well that ends well."
