Greg Mulholland MP: Call time on unfair and disastrous business rates rises for pubs
Sector-specific relief is needed for to address the current imbalance in business rates system, argues Greg Mulholland MP. As is well known, the last few years have been tough ones for Britain's exceptionally hard working publicans. Working very long hours, with little if any time off, facing changing habits, irresponsible supermarket pricing, the collapse of the property scam of the tied leased pubco model and the smoking ban, many licensees are just about making a living and keeping vital community assets open. Yet with all these issues and challenges, some pubs are facing a challenge that they simply cannot deal with, an unprecedented and huge rise in taxation, through a hike in business rates.
