PM 'drops' minimum drink prices
Conservative backbenchers have expressed concern amid suggestions that David Cameron has been pressured into dropping plans for minimum pricing of alcohol by senior Cabinet ministers.
'Is there anything you could organise in a brewery?'
Labour leader Ed Miliband made a joke at the Prime Minister's expense over his reported decision to scrap the minimum alcohol price.
Mr Miliband asked David Cameron in Prime Minister's Questions whether there was "anything he could organise in a brewery."
The Labour leader then said Home Secretary Theresa May had overruled the Prime Minister on the minimum alcohol price amid speculation she could be the next Conservative leader.
