Do we have the bottle to get tough on our booze culture?

BBC Radio Scotland - Morning Extra, Do we have the bottle to get tough on our booze culture?

Graham Stewart asks if you'd accept price increases or restrictions on alcohol.

Scotland has the eighth-highest level of alcohol consumption in the world, according to statistics analysed for the Scottish Government. The health minister Shona Robison says that's largely down to the big fall in alcohol's relative price over the years. But would you accept price increases or restrictions on your favourite tipple? And what would that do to our pubs, clubs and off-licences during a recession?
