Remove Business rates for Pubs and Restaurants
Do not reintroduce business rates on an industry that is already struggling. Over 10 pubs a week are closing in the UK as they struggle to make ends meet due to increasing taxes and extortionate utility bills.
It needs saving and by introducing business rates will put pubs out of business and staff will lose jobs.
