Who are the troublemakers pretending that Welsh shops will be banned from selling alcohol?
It isn’t true – and that’s official.
Rumours have started circulating that the Welsh Government is to ban the sale of alcohol anywhere in the country from December 17.
But the Welsh Government itself has stated categorically that the claim is a lie.
Clearly somebody thought they could capitalise on the ban on pubs selling alcohol by spreading a scare story. Who are these troublemakers? Name and shame them where you can.
Obviously Christmas is a time when more people like to sit back and enjoy a taste of their favourite tipple (but drink responsibly, folks!) and an alcohol ban would be an extremely unpopular move.
It would also be completely pointless. The ban on alcohol in pubs was to curb the spread of Covid-19 through the hospitality industry and there is no perceived need to stop alcohol entering socially-distanced homes.
So the rumour can only be an attempt to discredit the Welsh Government and score political points.
Let’s find out who started it so we can discredit them instead.
