Tonight, England and Wales prepare for their second matches of the tournament against the Netherlands and France respectively.
However, UK pubgoers are charged 33p more in beer duty than in France, and 34p more than in the Netherlands.
We’re calling on Government to level the playing field, make cuts to beer duty in the Autumn budget, and help the beer and pub sector support the Chancellor’s ambitions for growth.

Ahead of the #GeneralElection we spoke to Manchester punters about the cost of living, how we value community and how important the pub is to British life.
They all called on the next government to cut #beertax and #businessrates & to reduce the financial pressures on the pint..

but eventually Michael realised that this tax cut was overshadowed by previously announced tax rises and threshold freezes which will continue all the way through to 2028
