“Surveys show that since the start of the pandemic many drinkers are turning to alcohol to cope."

Roy Reay: I must say,

I'm still working. But it is really difficult being stuck indoors watching TV and spending time with my wife and kids. Also having a beer. No bombs being dropped on me. So can't complain.

John Coates: All these comments are pathetic, people went through wars lost loved ones ( who died for us ) and we are complainin­g about staying home , complainin­g about alcohol , they were struggling to eat , food rationed , come into the real world people
