Print nutritional information on alcohol.

Petition Details

With the growing obesity problem in the UK and binge drinking culture, would it not be best to aid people to make their own nutritional decisions.
This idea has been pushed by doctors and LGAs as recently as last January. Just because the EU governement has nit insisted, doesn't mean we shouldn't!

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Your petition seems to be calling on drinks manufacturers, not the Government or Parliament, to take this action.

If you would like Parliament to change the law, so that manufacturers are required to print this information on their products, you could start a new petition asking for that.
