As I said, at the time, the devolved governments were outdoing each other with caution for political ends with no evidence, no care for business or the knock on effects we are all seeing now and as many of us predicted.
Welsh Govt decision to open hospitality but ban alcohol sales during covid described as “an overly enduring legacy of the chapel heritage". No basis in fact but damaging to jobs & one reason for more Welsh hospitality business failures then and now https://t.co/Y3qqnoVQAW
If you are interested in what is happening to our town/city centre nighttime economies and nightclubs in particular, please find some time to listen to this. @EvanHD hosts myself @MickKill @Jocoxbrown to discuss challenges we face https://t.co/yv3nrDkwse
@StevenJGPerez Of those on NLW 30% work in retail, 30% in care, 30% in Hospitality
(10% other). But we are affected differently! Care is paid by Govt. Retail pay 6-20% of turnover BUT hospitality circa 30%. So it hits Hospitality the most and as discretionary spend we darent put our prices up!
National living wage confirmed to rise by 10% from April - up from £10.42 to £11.44 for over 23s. A reminder that although govt announces it it is businesses who deliver it and why it is so vital other action is taken to reduce tax and costs, particularly rates
@wullybull@theboxbaruk@arcinspirations It’s an amazing building Martin and it looks like you’ve done a fantastic job fitting it out👏🏻👏🏻. Good luck with it.
“Hospitality businesses are particularly exposed to further rate rises, due mainly to the Covid loans many were forced to take out during the pandemic."
