Excellent summary by @UKHospKate re. significant area of concern for many independent operators, incl us. R energy costs will ⬆️ to £6.5k/month in April up from £2.5k, just 2 years ago. Incredibly gauling, esp when you learn of the gigantic profits energy companies are pocketing
..Pre-pandemic energy costs were 4-6% of turnover, they've now become 15-17% of turnover. ..That's why energy is such a big factor in business viability @UKHospKate @UKHofficial

Echo the views / comments of others here. @UKHospKate as always making very clear, factual points, and delivering them in a manner that is calm and simple to understand.

Imagine having to take over £800 just to cover your costs and that includes those very quiet wet Mondays THAT'S why I have been saying #SaveHospitality

Worth a listen - @UKHospKate is fighting hard for the hospitality industry but we all need to add our voice too.

Big thank you @UKHospKate for laying out facts. Let's hope local MPs listen & understand. Pressure @RishiSunak's @Conservatives government to do something worthwhile to help. How about proper windfall tax, particularly in light of huge huge profits. @jamesowild @JeromeMayhew

Another morning of stories of misery and closures within Hospitality, due to untenable Energy bills. If the CEO of @ofgem, Jonathan Brearley, can't pull these Energy Co's in line, he should step aside from his £300k+ per annum job and allow someone else to sort it, urgently.

Pubs and restaurants are being forced to consider reducing opening hours to weather a “perfect storm” of soaring bills and cash-strapped customers cutting their spending this year. @Independent @UKHospKate independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho…

Our workers can't get into work, our customers can't travel to use our services and there are widespread cancellations due to growing uncertainty, says @UKHospKate as she describes how strikes are impacting businesses. trib.al/Rx0iR33 📺 Sky 501
