The Licensed Trade Charity (LTC), of which Prince Philip was a patron, has said its staff, trustees and volunteers have paid tribute to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, following his death on Friday 9 April.
The charity said it had a strong and historic relationship with the Royal Family over 180 years and was honoured to have Prince Philip as its figurehead.
The Duke of Edinburgh was patron of Licensed Victuallers’ National Homes and when it merged with the Society of Licensed Victuallers in 2004 to become the LTC, he maintained his association and became the LTC patron.
He recognised charity volunteers for their time given with a number of them attending the Buckingham Palace Garden Party.
By 1970 Britain’s licensing laws seemed woefully out of date. Opening and closing times were nonsensical when consumers could buy alcohol at any time of the day in shops. As the writers of this piece put it: “People who want to get
drunk badly enough will find a way. People
who merely want a drink should be able to
have it.” And the pub system itself was equally out of kilter, with five brewery concerns
controlling “more than 42,000 of the 68,000” licensed premises in the country. This meant that they monopolised the sales of beer and spirits, offering only their own brands. Any ale fancier wanting a local pint would have a difficult search. It was, said the authors, time to call last orders on the system.
