Do you think the UK has a problem with drink, with alcohol?
00:05
Yes, I believe it does.
00:07
I mean, I like to drink myself, but not that much.
00:13
You know, I don't overdo it.
00:15
I lived in Greece for a few years, and they'll sit and nurse a coffee for three hours.
00:19
I'll get through five or six beers, and they say to me, "You're crazy."
00:23
You know, it's just like, it's what I do.
00:26
If you bring the price down, they'll be drinking more.
00:30
But they drink it anyway.
00:34
So I don't know, but it doesn't want to go up, more up than price.
00:40
In a funny way, I think make it accessible to younger in family groups.
00:46
Which again could be dangerous, because if it was a family group like me,
00:50
they would see their dad drinking five or six pints a night, or two bottles of wine a night,
00:54
and normalize him there.
00:57
So, you know, what is the answer? I don't know.
