What the petition asks
Advertising cigarettes on TV was banned as it was classed as too unhealthy and dangerous. Alcohol causes thousands of deaths a year in the UK and a lot of people depend highly on alcohol use to get through the day. The advertising of alcohol could be making this worse.
Alcoholism is dangerous and kills many addicts a year! Banning advertising on TV may help prevent relapses.
