    Should we be able to go to the pub on public holidays?

    There could be a major shake-up to our alcohol laws later today A bill going before Parliament would allow bars, pubs, and clubs to open on religious holidays, including Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Christmas Day, and Anzac Day morning. Currently, bars and restaurants can only sell alcohol if customers are "residing or lodging" on the premises, or if they are there to dine. Critics say the law is confusing. While patrons are generally expected to order a "substantial meal" to be served alcohol, there's no clear legal definition of what that means, and no requirement that the food actually be eaten. These laws have been in place since the late 19th century, and we wondered what these potential changes might reveal about our relationship with religion. Religious studies expert and Massey University Professor Emeritus of History Peter Lineham chats to Jesse.
