United Kingdom
Throughout the United Kingdom, the sale of alcohol is only authorized for pubs, restaurants, shops and other premises that are officially licensed by the local authority. The individual responsible for the premises must also hold a personal license. As far as the concern of alcohol, premises licenses can be categorized into two different kinds:
- on-licences : allowing consumption of alcohol on the premises.
- off-licences : alcohol must be removed from the vendor's premises and drunk elsewhere.

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“Next to the right of liberty, the right of property is the most important individual right guaranteed by the Constitution and the one which, united with that of personal liberty, has contributed more to the growth of civilization than any other institution established by the human race.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“...I do deeply deplore, of the sake of the cause, the prevalent notion, that the clergy must be had, either by persuasion or by bribery. They will not need persuasion or bribery, if their hearts are with us; if they are not, we are better without them. It is idle to suppose that the kingdom of heaven cannot come on earth, without their cooperation.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
