Every day another closure in hospitality. Think of the revenue that GB Plc is losing @RishiSunak @jeremyhunt154 Do something about it before it’s too late for the industry. Reduce VAT for hospitality. – at South West, England

Hospitality outlet numbers fall below 100,000 for first time. Overall tax burden has risen from 30% to 38% of turnover and that is key - vital that business rates relief continues and VAT reviewed thetimes.co.uk/article/brita…

As the cost of a pint soars, Britain’s pubs are closing at rate of 6 a day

For the first time since records began, Britain has fewer than 100,000 venues serving alcohol as drinkers shun pubs and clubs due to the soaring price of a pin

UK Hospitality urgently needs to be brought in line with the rest of Europe. We pay 20% VAT. Belgium 6% Holland 9% France 10% Sweden 10% Spain 12% Greece 13% It would save businesses, jobs and attract investment.
