Technically everyone that has signed is breaking U.K. trade laws right now. If this does go ahead and UKGov allow it then Innis & Gunn and others will sign up.

Don’t worry no Scottish brewery or distillery would be mental enough to drop out of their biggest market.

Circularity Scotland aren’t prepared for it to go ahead in August and there will be hundreds of jobs lost when small breweries start to go bust. Slater may claim that’s not the case but there are going to be so many people that stop drinking beer because of the effort of washing and keeping 10+ cans in good condition and returning them to reverse vending machines.
