[Step 1 – Try and stop plans to allow bars to open later](http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4437512.stm).

I agree the plans are controversial but trying to stop them one week before the law comes into force could be a bit of a vote loser. Anyone under 30 and anyone owning a pub/bar/shop might be a little annoyed. Ofcourse all those living near a pub/bar/shop might be fairly happy.
