Tbh I donāt disagree.
Pubs do love to rip off but the ones that do are also enabled by protectionist regs.
Sensible pricing of sensible drinks has people sitting there longer and moderating their behaviour.
Open the pubs 24 hours a day
Does anyone really truly miss the pub?
Iām absolutely gasping for an afternoon at a quiet bar with a hape of porter. Might just use up my leave going for midweek pints this year.

But what a story.
I donāt think pubs should be allowed open 24 hours at a time but I do think that licencing laws should be made more flexible and that the publican is allowed choose their own closing time. Should be a case of every time they put in for their licence that they submit their closing times and have to stick by them. So if a pub says it wants to serve til 3am every night of the week so be it, but the publican must remain open until that time even if it is a country pub and does not have a customer on site on a wet Wednesday night.
Aside from a few late bar type places I doubt you would see a huge amount of pubs looking to stay open for more than an hour or two than they currently do.

Fellas could only fight with lads coming out of the same pub then.
Guidelines for reopening pubs
The guidelines for reopening pubs were due to be published today. Guides for restaurants and hotels were published this morning but following direction from the Department of the Taoiseach last night, FĆ”ilte Ireland ā who devised the guidelines ā were told not to launch the pub document.
Following extensive VFI efforts today, we are still unaware as to when the pub guidelines will be published but at this stage we expect the document to be available sometime this week. We understand membersā frustration at the delay, indeed we feel the same. There is an urgent requirement to commence work required to comply with social distancing guidelines so this new delay adds further unnecessary pressure.
The delay appears to stem from the Governmentās need to define a āpub serving foodā before allowing such venues reopen along with restaurants on 29th June. As announced last Friday, the reopening date for pubs not serving food is 20th July.
Itās important to emphasise that in the coming days Government may introduce specific guidelines as to what constitutes a pub serving food. We will send members the guidelines once they are available.
Iām just about old enough to remember the dinners in nightclubs sham of the late 90s
