A keg of Guinness is pricey. Diageo raised prices after its recent jump in popularity & we should now be charging ยฃ6.60 a pint. Murphy's is making a comeback in London pubs and we could bang that out for ยฃ5.80. We're tempted to change our house Irish stout. Should we?

As a longstanding campaigner against the #PubCoRipOff that has seen too many valued community pubs closing down and demolished or repurposed. I am enthusiastic supporter of the #PledgeforPubs and the Campaign for Pubs

Employer NI up by 1.2 to 15%. Threshold cut from ยฃ9100 pa to ยฃ5000. That is a ยฃ25bn tax rise, proportionally hitting harder those employing lower paid workers. Probably three quarters or so of the increase will flow through to lower pay.

#businessrates madness. Retail leisure and hospitality relief being slashed from 75% to 40% - this more than doubles bills overnight for hundreds of thousands of small high street businesses. How on earth does this deliver on the manifesto commitment to support these sectors?!

Weโ€™ve been campaigning consistently for long overdue #businessrates reform & itโ€™s a relief this has finally been announced (and MUST actually happen), but the cut in current relief from 75% to 40% will be disastrous for many #pubs & #publicans, alongside increased NI & wages.

The Cameron coalition GOV.UK of 2010-2015 was defeated just seven times on whipped votes. #Pub campaigners packed the UK House of Commons gallery to see this one. ๐Ÿ’ช Enough MPs had seen the appalling treatment of tied pub tenants to rebel against the tory effort to scupper reform.

In Nov 2014 following 4 damning Business and Trade Committee reports & years of campaigning by #publicans & FairDealforYourLocal campaigners, MPs voted for a genuine #MarketRentOnly option for #pubco tenants. This was never delivered ๐Ÿคฌ Please put this right Jonathan Reynolds โš–๏ธ campaignforpubs.org.uk/ten-years-on-fโ€ฆ

Sorry Lucy, you were directly involved with destroying the intent of the #PubsCode. Unwittingly or not you colluded with the offshore #pubcos. Many tied #publicans will never forgive you, so please donโ€™t pretend you are a friend of independent pubs. You chose #corporatism.

Big thanks to Julie Minns MP for raising the #PubsCode & the possibility of #guestbeer provisions. Weโ€™ve written to her about this & the need for reform of the unfair & anticompetitive tied model as operated by some pub owning companies. campaignforpubs.org.uk/wp-content/uplโ€ฆ

Tied pub tenant - "Done a few of these (surveys) over the years. Waste of time, the info we gave them was ignored, nothing changed."

There is just one important piece of info in this article, and that is that the team are quitting a pubco-owned pub and looking for a freehold instead. If only The Mirror had delved into that, this article could have been so much more. Campaign for Pubs mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-โ€ฆ
