Close all drinking only pubs & bars until a Coronavirus vaccine is available.

What the petition asks

Allow only pubs/bars that serve food to open with the rule that customers can only come in to sit & eat a meal during a designated time slot of 2hrs maximum. So ‘No food...No drink’ rule.
The people of this country have sacrificed so much over the last few months to reduce the death & suffering from Covid. But now we need to open up to save the economy & jobs. This is under threat by people’s inability to follow the health advice once drunk & this threatens to undo everything we have been through. Sadly pubs & bars currently fuel the congregation of close knit crowds of people drinking which could spread the virus & result in further deaths.
