Kerre Report post Posted January 6, 2006 To be honest I don't think it's that big a deal. It's probably just him drinking a couple of bottles of beer a night. Shock horror! Charles Kennedy drinks alcohol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mossgrove Report post Posted January 6, 2006 To be honest I don't think it's that big a deal. It's probably just him drinking a couple of bottles of beer a night. Shock horror! Charles Kennedy drinks alcohol! I think it was a bit more serious than that. He had missed a few important things (the Budget Speech in 2004 being the most notorious example) because he was too drunk/hungover to be seen in public. I wish him all the best in his recovery, alchoholism is an awful disease. Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canopus Report post Posted January 6, 2006 It wouldn't surprise me if Charles Kennedy has his own private whisky distillery somewhere in his constituency that includes Ben Nevis. I wonder if Kennedy's liver has rotted beyond repair? Larry Hagman as in JR Ewing needed a liver transplant after a drink problem. Next in line for trouble is Nick Griffin. He has his trial later this month and could end up in prison for 7 years. Whatever the outcome of the trial, I think it is win both ways for the British National Party.
