Labour pub licensing reforms Labour’s pub reforms promise longer hours – but ignore VAT, rates and low incomes that are driving UK pubs to collapse.

Labour’s plan for pubs: drink outside – until the lights go out.
Longer hours & soundbites won’t fix VAT, rates or low wages.

Labour says it’s “backing pubs” – but it’s all spin. Longer hours & cheaper licences won’t save locals crushed by VAT, rates & low demand.

"Why is it that a cafe is paying more tax than a big bank? That's ridiculous."

The tax burden on hospitality is unfair and causing businesses to be #TaxedOut.

On BBC Breakfast, our CEO Allen Simpson emphasised the need to lower business rates, fix NICs and cut VAT.

Clocking off? The place you’d usually go for a pint or a meal is closing its doors. Half of all UK job losses are now in hospitality. A nation losing its pubs is a nation in decline. #TaxedOut #UKHospitality

Half of all UK job losses are in hospitality. That’s your local pub, café, or takeaway at risk. This isn’t just a jobs crisis — it’s about where we meet, eat and live. #TaxedOut #UKHospitality #pubs

Half of all UK job losses are in hospitality. Pubs, cafés and restaurants are closing at record speed – a collapse that exposes the real state of our economy. #TaxedOut #UKHospitality #pubs

It’s last orders for Britain’s locals. 209 pubs lost in 6 months. Eight every week. This isn’t just economics — it’s the slow death of our pub culture. 🍺 #TaxedOut #UKPubs

Heading home? Imagine your local gone. That’s the reality for 209 pubs this year — eight a week closed. Bills up, support cut, VAT still sky-high. Britain’s pub culture is under demolition.

Pubs are closing at 8 a week. 209 gone in 6 months. Costs up, support cut, VAT still punishing. #TaxedOut shows the crisis is policy-driven — not accidental.

A pub’s protest sign has gone viral—but this isn’t banter, it’s a warning. The #TaxedOut campaign says small hospitality is being bled dry. Is the government deaf—or is this by design?

Emma Lewell MP: Taxed Out’ campaign aims to protect our hospitality industry It’s the start of the summer holidays and the start of what I hope will be a very busy time for our hospitality industry here in South Shields.

South Shields' hospitality industry contributes £40m to the economy and employs over 2000 people.

As living costs rise, the Govt must do all it can to support this industry to thrive. That is why I am supporting @ukhospitality.bsky.social's #TaxedOut campaign

The 2024 Budget was a hammer blow to hospitality.

In the eight months since, hospitality has lost 84,000 jobs – three times that seen in the wider economy.

That’s a massive change. In the same time the previous year we created 18,000 new jobs. #TaxedOut
