For the £4.5bn you announced for cycle paths we could fund the entire upgrade program for Challenger 2 to Challenger 3 main battle tanks, buy a new rifle for every member of our armed forces under project Grayburn and have enough left over for 3 Type 45's for the Royal Navy. My question is this, How will you be deploying cycle paths to defend our country?
Our pubs, restaurants, cafes, hotels, nightclubs and many more, are at the heart of our communities.
They bring people together and bring life to our cities, towns and villages, but they're under huge pressure from rising costs.
In the UK, you pay one of the highest VAT rates in Europe. 20% extra in VAT for your pint, meal out or stay away. In France, Spain and Italy, it's 10%. In Germany? 7%.
Our message to Government is simple. Let's stand together to say VAT at 10% is fair for hospitality.

Hospitality is united that #VATsTheProblem. A new sector-wide campaign, spearheaded by @ChefTomKerridge, is calling for hospitality VAT to be reduced from 20% to 10%.
Hospitality pays too much tax, and VAT is the single biggest lever the Government can pull to support the sector. Sign the petition today 👇

🚨FIRE UPDATE🚨 - I think it’s fair to assume this whole corner of Glasgow Central has now gone thanks to the fire.
So sad. Such a beautiful building. They don’t catch fire by themselves, what the hell happened, and why does this KEEP happening to our historic buildings?!!
