The UK is facing a severe pub crisis...
From April, pubs with ยฃ100,000 rateable value will see Business Rates jump by ยฃ19,000 per year.
They'll need to sell an additional:
60,000 pints a year.
Thats 1200 pints a week.
Thats 170 extra pints every single day.
Thats before rising energy bills, rising wages and other costs.
Survival won't be an option for many.
Dear Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, Lid, Aldi, Waitrose, Morrisons, and all other stores that have self checkout.
You are heading towards almost exclusively self-checkout now.
The lady checking receipts at the exit was stopping
everyone.
I didn't choose to participate in that nonsense, I had already
๐ filled my cart
๐ emptied my cart
๐ scanned the items
๐refilled my cart
and so I just skipped the exit line and left.
I heard her saying "umm - Excuse me " as I kept walking and raised the receipt above my head, leaving the store.
You can either trust me to do self-checkout, or you can put your cashiers back in place like it used to be.
I'm not interested in proving that I did your job for you.
โข If you want me to be a cashier with no training then that's vour problem not mine.
โข Keep employing young people and give them job opportunities.
YOU DON'T PAY ME TO SCAN MY OWN SHOPPING.
YOU DON'T GIVE ME STAFF DISCOUNT FOR WORKING FOR YOU.
Signed ....All of us
These are jobs that are needed to have for young and old

See our story in todayโs @TheSun on tax.
The Chancellor is considering a second tax hike on spirits duty in the space of six months - enough is enough.
A bottle of gin is already taxed at 80%.
