A local government council in London is facing a political issue due to a proposal. The proposal aims to limit a certain type of drinking behavior. This behavior is referred to as "vertical drinking" by the council.

The term "vertical drinking" is a euphemism used by the council to describe a specific action. It is essentially having a drink while standing, such as having a pint. Further details about the proposal and the reaction to it are available from ABC7 Los Angeles.
