The Daily PollIRELAND CURRENTLY HAS the most expensive alcohol in the EU, and it looks like it’s about to get even steeper.
The Minister for Health is set to publish the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill later today.
It’s understood it will set a floor price of €1.60 for a bottle of beer and €7.10 for a bottle of wine.
The Bill will also make it a criminal offence to advertise alcohol irresponsibly and ban advertising alcohol near schools, and enforce a watershed on TV.
So today we’re asking, do you think higher alcohol pricing will change how much you drink?

McDonald’s food is cold by the time you get it to your table let alone your house!
Food?
I worked at McDonald’s when I was a student. Unsold fries were binned 7 minutes after being cooked and burgers 10 minutes, as they were deemed below quality for sale after that point. This is part of why there is no delivery service. By the way, there was minimal waste as we were trained to judge how much to cook depending on demand.
I’m pretty sure McDonalds are in no way shape or form responsible for obesity. I’m almost certain it’s the individuals decision to eat fast food that causes the health issues.
But since this is the internet there’s no such thing as personal responsibility, just faux outrage and people taking offence.
There’s no mention whatsoever of obesity in this article or the comments so far. Did you just scan the headline, see “McDonalds”, and decide to do a pre-emptive rant?
Norman Hunters comment above, see also atticus’ comment above.
They do deliver, a whole host of health problems from that crap they claim to be food.
Even the salad is high in calories.
Nobody is forced to eat in McDonalds.
Try driving past one with Kids in the car
Kids are by lazy parents as a ” treat” .
I do it all the time Frank. But I have to be a responsible adult and parent and tell them straight… “listen, for the last time, we are not stopping in Mcdonalds. We are going to burgerking, the burgers are bigger, end of story”
Who’s in charge Frank?
Frank. Plan your route to avoid mc slurry. Do you know how bad that junk is for your kids.
Get off yiz fat arses and drive to the drive thru
It wrecks the cheese!
They do liver?
@conor. Yep, fried with onions. And they do a lovely kidney coated in batter. But the tastiest by far is their kroc burger.
What a Kroc….
Sadly most people don’t get the joke Paul. :)
Replying to show appreciation.
Why don’t they deliver?
Because the food will deflate before it gets to it’s destination?
Because you can’t carry highly flammable toxic waste without a special licence?
Because they are afraid of someone using their food as a murder weapon?
Al ca . Pure kroc.
Don’t mind delivery, there needs to be a massive campaign to get McDonald’s to do all day breakfast!!
They sell the nicest food on the menu (McMuffens) in the morning because it gets punters in, if they sold them all day people wouldn’t bother going there in the morning. That was their excuse around a year ago.
I love the breakfast roll in McDonalds!
@Thomas Maher: they do all day breakfast in my neck of the woods.
Ask an employee who works behind the scenes if they eat there.
Yip, daily. All 11 and a half stone of me.
You’re making a documentary, obviously!
They deliver a “huge” contribution to obesity especially in the United States of Obesity.
I haven’t been to an Asian country where they don’t deliver.
That’s great, but we’re in Europe
Mm. Where 3d printing could actually be useful…
Poison!
Supermacs delivers so who really cares. Nothing special about McDonalds.
Handy if you have a suoermacs nearby
Burger King should step up to the plate.
I have handed back many burgers because they are cold when received.. Never an issue to get a replacement..
Since the staff generally fail to get an order of more than three items correct without repeating it at least twice, I’d think that addresses and directions might be a step too far…
In all fairness,why would you eat it,let alone get a delivery to you’re door
If Ronald McDonald arrived at my door on a moped there is no way I would open the door. Mortified.
The local McDonalds I lived near in London delivered. Minimum order was £15 though….so it was a lot of food if you were only ordering for yourself.
No regrets though.
they deliver in dubai
Where its hotter on delivery than it was leaving the restaurant :-)
All the way from ireland ?
Here in Spain now burger king have started a a delivery service. They have started to trounce McDonalds with unlimited refills on soft drinks and coupons, also their burgers are juicier and no dehydrated onion
Just sell it all frozen in the supermarket. I’m surprised they don’t already. All they do is heat it up anyway.
When u order a grilled quater pounder only cheese , its never dry , oozes with juice and melted cheese . Hasn’t been sitting on the shelf for 10 mins !
I’m sorry… “Fresh”??? Who do they think they’re kidding?
It’s cold before u get it to the table so it could have Rigomortis before it gets to your door
The juices of the sweaty double chee’ would be as dry as an auld wans beef curtains !
Kylemore McDonald’s deliver do they not
Maccy D’s do deliver in China. EMIGRATE. ;)
They do deliver in Hoboken, New Jersey.
