Pints, Plates and personally opinions, the hospitality sector, VAT, NI and the unbelievable hike in costs in the sector and why its so important to keep hopsitality alive
@RachelReevesMP it's fine if you want us to pay higher wages, more buisness NI, but you have to give something back and change something. VAT on hospitality is the highest in Europe, Ireland in Jan 2026 is lowering it to 9%
@RachelReevesMP if you Lowered VAT in Hopsitality then it would allow us to employ more staff, contributing more NI and PAYE tax Staff working creates more tax, also creates more spending on other areas. At the moment we are having to cut staff to bare bones.
@RachelReevesMP u need 2 do something about The VAT rate in hopsitality!!! It's killing the trade. Along with the extra buisness NI we now have 2 pay, & the increase on staff costs the trade is decimated!! U need to save the Hospitality sector it's the 3rd biggest sector in UK
Tonight in 15 minutes join us on @bbctwo for the start of teh 20th Series #GreatBritishMenu #20Years #NorthWest
@eddiehallWSM was your dad ever in Carlisle because your long lost brother is here
@RachelReevesMP @UKLabour if your the party of Buisness show the hospitality trade a new VAT rate, one that would allow us to thrive and not strangle us, 10% vat rate would make us grow as an industry and would create spending and jobs also. #vat #hospitality #growth
@Conservatives Come out with a new VAT rate for hospitality sector You will get votes in this VAT IN OUR SECTOR IS KILLING OUR TRADE will help with jobs and wages which will help toward the economy 10% VAT rate for our sector would win votes
@eddiehallWSM you know if your dad was in Carlisle roughly 1985 period ??? Think we have found your brother mate
The Budget @Jeremy_Hunt hasnt raised the threshold for tax since 2021 Meaning your actually getting more tax from people! Wages go up threshold stays the same=more tax VAT rate on hospitality is killing the trade along with all food,wages,general costs up You gave us nothing!!!
@CODEHospitality @GoodFoodGuideUK We were featured in the 2020 edition of the GFG but haven't been included in the current one or reviewed Any reason for this ??
If @CumberlandCoun don't make the most of this then they all need thrown out. Carlisle's roman heritage should be what York is with its Viking heritage! Where is the exhibition centre gonna be? What time of year is the Roman march in the city gonna be?? All will bring tourism !!
@ColinGlover2 @EHCarlisle And its a shame we don't do more to show case the heritage this city has. Like York does with the vikings. Loads needs sorting in this city !

10% vat in resturants in Spain. And the UK have 20%, surely dropping VAT down to a level which makes dining out in the UK more affordable would boost the economy!, would help us with employed rising costs. @Jeremy_Hunt @RishiSunak Hospitality minister is 100% needed
We’ve had a busy couple of days filming for our @CaterforceLtd conference in November. We’ve visited @CarlisleYZ @loungeOTgreen @HaweswaterHotel and also collared staff to take part too! Thanks to everyone 🙏🏻
Iv been saying this for months VAT on our trade is far to high Corporation tax cut is pointless
I was alarmed when I heard Liz Truss was going to support business by cutting corporation tax. No point cutting taxes on non existent profits. A VAT cut would make a huge difference to our industry. However much more will be needed to save businesses and jobs this winter 🙏🏻
