Celebrating the fantastic #PublicHealth victory on #MUP today at the @SHAAPAlcohol Professor Tim Stockwell lecture on health benefits of moderate drinking. 🥳 Summary, there almost certainly aren’t any. 👎
We support @AlcoholFocus and @SHAAPAlcohol's calls for an automatic uprating mechanism The minimum unit price of alcohol must be linked to a measure of affordability to maintain the effectiveness of MUP in saving lives Read more 🔽
In a 'major win for public health', the Scottish Parliament has voted to maintain and uprate the level of Minimum Unit Pricing in Scotland today. 🥳👏 AHA Chair, Professor Sir Ian Gilmore, responds to the news. Full statement at 👇 ahauk.org/news/mupvote
We support @AlcoholFocus and @SHAAPAlcohol's calls for an automatic uprating mechanism for Minimum Unit Pricing. The price must be linked to a measure of affordability to maintain the effectiveness of MUP in saving lives.
As always an insightful & informative talk this evening from friend & colleague Prof Tim Stockwell @UVic_CISUR 🇨🇦 - was pleased to chair & thanks to @SHAAPAlcohol @InstAlcStud for organising and @RCPEdin for hosting.
Professor Stockwell explains why it matters so much whether moderate drinking is or isn't 'good for you'. "It determines government guidelines, policymaking, and the estimate of deaths from alcohol, which are often wildly underestimated."
Brilliant talk by Prof Tim Stockwell on moderate drinking health benefits... Loved that he said he had 'flip flopped 3 or so times on the issue' over his career.. but excluding low quality studies appears to erode the (in)famous j-curve effects..

Great to see this news from Scotland. As pointed out by @hrbireland - evidence shows that MUP is most effective in combination with a suite of other recommendations within the Public Health (Alcohol) Act 2018 and when it is adjusted in line with inflation.
SHAAP are delighted that the Scottish Parliament have voted in favour of the continuation of Minimum Unit Pricing and the uprating of MUP to 65p! Our chair @AlastairMacG57 commented, see below
Now the priority should be "implementation of an automatic uprating mechanism for MUP, to ensure that the level of is in line with inflation and it does not become more affordable time. This way the benefits of the policy will not decline year on year." x.com/shaapalcohol/s…
SHAAP are delighted that the Scottish Parliament have voted in favour of the continuation of Minimum Unit Pricing and the uprating of MUP to 65p! Our chair @AlastairMacG57 commented, see below
Congratulations to all the public heath advocates who have campaigned strongly for this well-evidenced measure, particularly in the face of considerable misinformation.
SHAAP are delighted that the Scottish Parliament have voted in favour of the continuation of Minimum Unit Pricing and the uprating of MUP to 65p! Our chair @AlastairMacG57 commented, see below
Professor Tim Stockwell explains that he used to believe that alcohol was cardio-protective, even comparing those who didn't think so to 'flat earthers'.
