Alcohol drinkation tax hasn't even come in yet...

Already taxes higher, well manufacturers on soft drinks with sugar....

Sunak’s five-point plan, which takes effect in 2023, will simplify the tax brackets at an overall cost to the Treasury of £555m by 2027. The plans will cut the cost of a range of drinks but increase the duty levied on wine with alcohol content above 11%, such as high-strength ciders and fortified like port and Buckfast.


So because I like a high strength cider I am going to be penalised!

Edit, well not ciders because that would be ridiculous strength, blow me socks off...but I am partial to a bottle of rose.
