Fake alcohol news

The BBC has still not corrected its story from Tuesday which falsely claimed that alcohol-related deaths are 'dropping in Scotland'. This fake news has been spread around the world by advocates of minimum pricing and will doubtless continue to do so. The BBC is, after all, a supposedly trusted source.



 

This is not an isolated example of the public being misled about what has happened in Scotland since minimum pricing was introduced. I've written a whole article about it for Spiked. Do have a read of it.
