Congratulations to Jonathan Holmes for saying what so many of us have been thinking, and for throwing the gauntlet right before liberal puritans and uncultured ascetics.

He is quite right to point out that not only is alcohol an ingrained part of our culture, but that it has made a huge contribution to ours and Western civilisation in general. Alas, the colonialists of Puritanism, in their quest to impose a mudane 'one healthy size for all' mentality upon us, will not even forgive us the dram to tolerate, never mind the bottle to block their Nannery out.

If such articles become a regular feature in Student perhaps we should all contribute to a vodka fund for its writers?
