Laura Hall can't drink in England/Wales

xoxoxoBruce · 04-18-2010, 02:34 AM

Laura Hall has become the first person to be banned from buying or drinking alcohol anywhere in England and Wales.

Quote:

Laura Hall, 20, was issued with a Drinking Banning Order - nicknamed Booze Asbos - which bars her from entering any pub, club, off-licence or bar. The two-year order also bans Hall from buying alcohol at any other establishment or shop, carrying it in an unsealed container or drinking it in a public place.

Quote:

Police applied to magistrates after Hall was convicted of breaching an Asbo imposed for drink-related anti-social behaviour. She has been convicted of a series of public order offences, and had flouted bans from pubs and clubs through local Pub-Watch schemes in her home town of Bromsgrove, Worcestershire.

This is from the same country that's giving methadone to clean prisoners, before they're released.

Curiouser and curiouser.

Bruce, I'm afraid that common sense and consistency have long since departed this sceptred isle.

We can only stop and stare as we might had we seen a herd of Wildebeest amble down Aylesbury High Street.

I knew it was a Mail story by the tits.

Well, she is hot.

xoxoxoBruce · 04-18-2010, 08:13 AM

Right, The Sun had that picture, plus this one.

I guess they're doing a public service, by spreading her picture across the kingdom, so pub-keepers will keep an eye out for her.

But I still wonder if this ban is really legal?

yes it's legal.

In my state, the courts can legally order you to go on antabuse which has the same effect - probably more - as a ban from bars and liquor stores. Oh, and they supervise when you take it, so there's a better chance of compliance.

But those aren't the same woman, so we don't know who's Laura Hall.

xoxoxoBruce · 04-18-2010, 07:23 PM

I saw the first picture in three places, so I'd assume that's her.
Being 20 years old and attractive, I doubt if she'll have much trouble acquiring grog, she just won't be able to party hearty with the gang at the pub.

She looks good and all, but twenty?

Charming and classy young lady. Her parents must be so proud.

They're everywhere stupid women with no self-esteem or self-value who will sell a peek at their boobahs for some really cheap plastic beads want to be!

The chick probably can't hold her smoke either

Shawnee123 · 04-19-2010, 07:55 AM

Haha!

I'm also reminded of an old SNL commercial parody. Gilda Radner talking about Harley's Bristol Cream...she's all sultry and sexy (you might remember the commercial for Harvey's Bristol Cream.) Cut to next day as she stumbles out of some apartment building, disheveled and in last night's sexy cocktail dress, hair all over the place, obviously unsure where she even is. The Walk of Shame.
