Sonia Campbell, Partner at Mishcon de Reya who is leading the legal action against insurers on behalf of #HIGA, recently spoke to @Caterertweets about why it may not be too late for the hospitality industry to take on insurers over their refusal to pay out on #BIinsurance.

We're reducing VAT to 5% for goods and services supplied by the tourism and hospitality sectors.
