UK Considers Alcohol Advertising Ban: Industry Pushback and Political Fire
The UK government is reportedly considering a partial or complete ban on alcohol advertising as part of a new NHS health plan. Industry leaders and pubs are pushing back, while politicians are trading fiery words. What does this mean for pubs, sports sponsorships, and the public?
In this episode of UK Business Morning, Lewis breaks down the latest news about potential changes to alcohol advertising in the UK. With reports emerging from the Department of Health & Social Care, the industry is already reacting strongly.

Could this move align alcohol advertising with restrictions on unhealthy food? We explore the implications for pubs, sports sponsorships, and the public. Tune in as we unpack the controversy ahead of the NHS's ten-year health plan release next week.
