Ban the sale of 7.5% Cheap White Cider which is highly addictive and deadly!

Petition Details

White Cider is likened to the 'heroin' of drinks. It is so cheap and widely available, it is popular with those in society that have very little income.
Cheap White Cider is easy to produce from imported apple juice, so does not impact the British Cider Industry.
