I know for a fact that when they allowed free opening hours in Iceland the violence was reduced dramatically. Imagine a city where 95% of the pubs and clubs are consentrated in an area that is about 1 square kilometre, and all the people get dumped, drunk off their heads, to the streets at the same time. Belive me it is not pretty, normally there were dozens of people sent to the hospital every weekend because of fights over taxis etc. Now that hardly happens at all.
I think the conservatives in England will find they are wrong
