I THOUGHT I was the loony candidate for York. However it seems there could be several more following the suggestion of a booze parlour for children (February 3).
Drinking underage, when the body is so much more vulnerable, can lead to permanent liver damage by middle age.
Children should be discouraged from binge drinking - not given the thumbs up.
In the late Seventies, we used to have a non-alcohol club off Micklegate for kids called Pip's. It gave teenagers the taste of nightlife without the problems.
Just think kids - if you drink now, what will you have to look forward to when you are 18? Keep your youth special and alcohol free - in later years you will be glad you did.
