The alcohol industry is refusing to take the continuing lockdown booze ban lying down.

On Saturday, the Gauteng Liquor Forum sent an angry reply to the State Attorney, which informed it on Friday of the National Command Council's decision to reject its request for a relaxation of the ban.

But it demanded to know by Thursday whether the lockdown would be extended, how much longer it would last, and whether the government would extend financial assistance to unregistered shebeens. The SA Liquor Brandowners Association also said it was dismayed by the National Command Council decision.

Good. Let adults make their own decisions. We not a fascist state. We make the decision for ourselves not the gov for us. They serve at our pleasure. Gov works for us. Not us for them.
