If Heathrow Harry thinks that these laws are because of social issues within the country of Norway, he has clearly lost it. UK is probably the Western European country with most social issues.
true but in Norway they ENFORCE them .......... big time

It's not me that thinks they have a social problem with drinking - ask any Norwegian or Google it - as one recent study said "it's not that we in Norway drink a lot more than other countries - it's the way we drink that causes a lot of problems..." Hence the Vinmonopolet monopoly, the restriction on hours, what you can buy in grocery store...............

It's not as tough as it was 40 years ago but they still think they have a problem see
