It turns out that the new “Street Trading Consents” licence fees will also apply to the little roadside egg stands with honesty boxes. 😡

Let’s be honest about who this ridiculous new licensing affects.

It’s usually small farms with a little wooden stand and an honesty box. Fresh eggs. Homemade jam, hardly a business.

Or someone who bakes once a week because they truly enjoy it. A few cupcakes, a brownie, something homemade. There’s very little money in it — it’s passion, not profit.

These aren’t big businesses dodging tax.
They’re not corporations.
They’re part of the fabric of our villages and towns.

Life is hard enough right now. Instead of supporting local initiative and community spirit, they want to slap a licence fee on it. That’s not encouragement — that’s discouragement.

And this is how it starts…

Price out the little cake cupboards.
Licence the honesty boxes.
Charge the farm gate egg sellers.

Before you know it, all that’s left are the big chains who can afford the fees, the paperwork, the red tape.

Same shops. Same menus. Same everything.

No character. No community. No local passion.

We should be protecting the small, not squeezing them out. Because once they’re gone, they’re not coming back.
LETS FIGHT THIS crazy new licence fee 🙏

A Sealand - Saltney Car Bridge would absolutely transform the whole City of Chester for the better, it is long overdue and would benefit our residents for generations to come!

It would be a legacy from our generation to our gt. grandchildren.

We can’t keep saying we don’t have the ££, we need to find a way to get it done. Even if that means public subscription via a small toll until paid. The Grosvenor Bridge is completely overwhelmed almost every hour of the day.
It’s holding the Chester & North Wales economy back.

@FabChester @Beresford_Adams @curranshomes @Go_CheshireWest Agree. These boards shouldn't be attached there @Beresford_Adams @curranshomes very irresponsible. @ShitChester

[Fabulous* @FabChester]

@Beresford_Adams & @curranshomes you must immediately remove your boards from the Grade 1 Listed Heritage Asset aka the Walls before @Go_CheshireWest take action. It must be attached to the property you're instructed to market, not here.

If Labour actually cared about reducing carbon emissions and making us less dependent on imports from Qatar they would do *MORE* drilling in the North Sea.
