Every pub and bar in Oxford city centre is to be ranked in a league table, showing how responsible they are.

Every one of the 70-odd premises in the city will be given a grading of three to five stars for the way they manage their premises, in a football league-style table.

The new scheme, the brainchild of Nightsafe, the organisation set up to encourage responsible drinking in Oxford, will award stars based on a bar's attitude to promoting sensible drinking.

Premises will learn their rankings on Friday.
