So let’s not-quite-clink our glasses to safety, always safety first. Authorities are concerned that the glass vessels familiar for hundreds of years are too often used as weapons. [Lowering the Bar]

Outside of the soft totalitarianism aspects of this bureaucratic hyper-regulation, is the complete misunderstanding of materials chemistry by exceedingly ignorant and obviously out of control “British Government.”
Organic chemistry advances of 50 years ago have long since made plastics just as hard as glass, and far more unbreakable.
let me know when it descends to putting a cork on the end of a fork like in “Dirty Rotton Scoundrels.”
They are officially baby-proofing the whole island.
The worst part is we’re not far behind with the government wanting to control all aspects of your life. It’s just that Great Britain is a little more “advanced” than we are in achieving it.

That’s not an issue. The government probably will mandate replacement of glass mugs with baggies. (Of course, you won’t be able to take your “leftovers” home.)
But plastic is bad for the environment! Just ban the beer. That’s the root cause of the problem anyway.
