Brits can now be fined for drinking at bus stops and memorials in new booze law crackdown

The Tory government is set to clamp down on anti-social behaviour with drinking alcohol at bus stops and war memorials to be banned in a throwback to New Labour under Tony Blair.

Graffiti vandals will also be forced to scrub away any mess within 48 hours of getting caught, while litter bugs will be put into 'chain gangs' and made to tidy up local areas.

The strategy is also set to include banning the sale and possession of laughing gas, and cracking down on fly-tipping.
