That is where the cuts should come. If they want wine, or any alcoholic drink for that matter, then they should dip into their own pockets and pay for it themselves.....not from expenses, from their wages.

Only works out at £1,330 per head hardly worth calling it binge drinking is it?

Mind you, if ever they want someone to get rid of some of the old stuff...
