Government to fund a public service campaign about not queuing in a line in pubs
Educate the public on how to queue in pubs. This should be around the bar, not in a long bus-stop style queue. Queueing around bars is traditional and sociable. Single file queuing destroys the communal nature of pubs. Regular public service broadcasts should raise awareness of queuing etiquette.
A Public Service Campaign for Better Bar Etiquette. The Government, through its relevant departments, to fund an engaging Public Service Campaign utilising digital media and print signage to educate the public on effective pub bar etiquette.
The campaign's core message should be simple: Do not form a single, long line. Position yourself around the bar area and respect the bartenders' judgment in serving the next customer.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about correct etiquette in pubs are a matter for individual pubs, not the UK Government or Parliament.
