| Message | Opposed. Alcohol is a dangerous substance, and creates monsters out of humans and paupers out of the working class. It is the drink of oppression. |

| Message | I have to say, I have enjoyed alcohol being banned all these years and haven't regretted it at all. Just to make a joke for the sake of the IADP, how is alcohol the drink of depression when the Russian 'proletariats' needed vodka to escape from the viles of their communist government? I know that was hilarious [sic]. That reminds me of another funny, I once (in a letter) refered to Peter Hain as the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland [sic]. Number 10 and the NIO didn't seem to enjoy it, however David Lidington did. I now take my leave and thank all of you for your forbearance. |

| Message | The Russian dictatorship was a state capitalist society, and being totalitarian was just as interested in oppressing its people as all elitist governments before it. |
