Ive been in many a VIP lounge and seen the actions of so-called Business representatives downing glass after glass of "free" wines, spirits and lagers.... So if we crack down on alcohol in airports will it be a class thing, drink as many £4 pints as you can until you run out of money, or pull the gents/ladies who can avail themselves of bottles of alcohol in a lounge?

This can set a very dangerous precedent .

The person looking into this problem, I believe , should be teetotal. That shouldn't , and hopefully won't have any bearing on the case. Maybe one of the crew could be stationed with the boarding staff, who are supposed to stick with that carriers rules, so that evidently drunk people can, and will be refused entry onboard.

Interesting times ahead, but in my view more nanny state. We will try to control every part of your life, by giving you information to prove everything we say is true. We need to be careful.
