Summary: A multi-billion dollar court case between the world's two biggest technology companies has begun in California with Apple accusing Samsung of copying its iPhone and iPad. Samsung denies the allegation and has made counter-claims that Apple had copied technology. The two companies have launched legal cases against each other around the world
Hints:
        Health Select Committee
        Alcohol Strategy

        Heineken

英式拼法I think the Health Select Committee report has been a very useful addition to the government's Alcohol Strategy, some very useful comments on advertising and I think emphasising that advertising does change behaviour, it does influence children, and it's therefore really important that the government goes further on advertising than they've done in the past. The Health Select Committee, for example, suggested that we look harder at what they do in France where there's a complete ban on broadcast advertising of alcohol products, there's a complete ban on sport sponsorship. So that would be a really helpful way forward for this country because advertising does make a difference for children. For example, Heineken is the official beer of the 2012 Olympics now what message does that send to children about the link between alcohol and sporting prowess?
The committee also says there needs to be greater emphasis on the health impact of drinking alcohol not just anti-social behaviour. Why has it always been this? Why has this emphasis always been on anti-social behaviour and not on the health impact?
I think everyone always finds it easier to talk about other people, those young people who are making trouble in our cities on Saturday night, rather than necessarily looking at their own consumption. We know that many people drink well above recommended safe limits. They don't make trouble in cities on Saturday night, they're doing so at home. It's this sort of hidden drinking on a regular basis that leads to many of the chronic conditions we see in our hospitals every day of the year, cirrhosis of the liver, strokes, cancers that are strongly alcohol related and so on. So I think it's been a very useful change in emphasis.
