In an effort to stop what has been a trend in binge drinking among young pub patrons, the British government has sought to crackdown on bars, pubs and clubs that sell alcohol to under-18s and to those who have drank an excessive amount of alcohol in public.

The campaign to crackdown on those who binge drink will begin during the Christmas and New Year holidays. British police will target drunken behavior with on-the-spot fines and for those who are better known for causing trouble in and around the community with their excessive drink of alcohol.

"We know that many Londoners will be out celebrating the festive period in the weeks ahead and we want everyone to enjoy doing so in a safe environment," Scotland Yard Commander Chris Allison said in a statement.

"Responsible drinking backed up by licensees taking a lawful and accountable approach to the sale of alcohol will help ensure town centers do not turn into areas of violence, fear and vomit."

"Revelers need to protect themselves from becoming a victim of crime. Anyone getting drunk and becoming disorderly faces an expensive night out with the possibility of an 80 pound fixed penalty fine or a court appearance."
