MORE than half of Scots think the UK Government should be doing more to support the whisky industry, according to new polling ...

Some 55% of people said that the Tory government was not doing enough in response to a Survation poll for the Scotch Whisky Association .

A 10.1% duty increase for whisky was brought in by the UK Government on August 1, in a move that the SWA said “Distillers and the businesses they support have already felt the impact of the double-digit duty hike this year – which the ONS said saw alcohol make the biggest contribution to UK inflation on record.

Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
