Not really sure how they can enforce this. Sure, her local pubs had already banned her, but every spot in Wales and England? And who's gonna know not to sell her booze at the store?

Woman becomes first person banned from EVERY pub and club in the country

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

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.

.....

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.

Kidderminster Magistrates' Court heard yesterday that Hall faces a £2,500 fine if she breaks the conditions of the order.

.....

Under the terms of the order, Hall must attend an approved alcohol-misuse course. If she completes it without breaching any of its terms, the DBO could be lifted after 12 months.

Since their introduction in September, police and local authorities can ask magistrates to impose the orders on anyone responsible for alcohol-fuelled crime or anti- social behaviour to stop them drinking or entering licensed premises.

She is welcome to have a drink with me in any bar in America :) After she is 21...she is 20???

ASBO

Well, if she gets caught in a bar, she risks going to prison.
 
Real mature. This women obviously has a serious drinking problem and is an example of the rising binge drinking among woman.

:rolleyes:
 
I cannot imagine how this will be imposed...

Very easily. The obviously don't expect every bar in the country to have her photo posted, rather it will be enforced if she violates the order and comes into contact with law enforcement (which seems inevitable, given her history).

She'll go to a bar and get overly drunk and violent, get arrested for drunk and disorderly (or the UK equiv). When they run her name at the station, they'll find this order and she'll be punished accordingly. In terms of enforcement there is little difference between this order and a driving ban.
 
Woman? :cardie: Doesn't the problem involve more than one, BREW?

Dunno, I guess if you keep getting busted for your drunken behavior it makes sense...
 
If i lived there, I would invite her over to drink at my place.
 
That wine doesn't look chilled. What a peasant.
I'm also sure she didn't give it time to get a proper oxygenation. Bah.
For wine connoisseurs, the word is "breathe."

Its usually red wine that you need to allow to breathe. As long as a cheap white is chilled, that's probably enough.

It allows you to look like a bit of a knowledgeable type, without actually affecting the taste of the wine :)
