Its both a good idea and a bad idea. Depends on which way you look at it. I can see that its definately gonna cause more violence and drunken behavior, but for those who just wanna go for a quiet drink down theyre local pub, its great coz it doesnt mean you have to clear off after 11pm. The best thing about this, is that theyre leaving it upto the individual landlord to decide if they so wish to apply for a later licence.
The Cavern Club in Liverpool is one of the first to get a 24 hour licence
