A failure of Duty.

The Government is killing your pub!

CAMRA, The Campaign for Real Ale has condemned the decision by the Chancellor to hit pubs with an increase in Beer Tax.

CAMRA Chief Executive, Mike Benner, said:

“The Chancellor's refusal to allow beer drinkers to benefit from a VAT reduction means that 7,500 pubs could close by the end of 2012. The Government's failure to support pubs will undermine community life, ruin livelihoods and deprive people of an affordable night out at a local pub.”

Out Inn Cheshire condemns the blinkered and uninformed approach taken by the Government to continue damaging the pub trade at a time when it desparately needs a more thoughtful approach.

Why don't you like pubs, Darling?
