To everyone in Hospitality it is quite clearly time 2call time on serving @Jeremy_Hunt & all of the Conservative MP’s (apart from the 40 who wrote to him) at any of our Pubs Restaurants, Bars,Hotels, & Night Clubs! Enough is Enough! @UKHospKate @Sacha_Lord @piersmorgan @GBNEWS

I don’t want tax cuts. I want the ambulance to arrive. I want good schools, public transport and town centres. I want investment in jobs, education and people. An extra tenner a week is no good to me when society is falling to bits.

If Hospitality don't get a VAT reduction in next weeks Budget, The Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt will knowingly be allowing 1000's businesses go bust, meaning 10,000's job losses. Decimation on his watch.

Great to join @HospUlster in calling for a joined up support across the U.K. for hospitality - so important economically, culturally and socially
Hospitality industry urges new NI Finance Minister and Chancellor to back the hospitality sector. “We realise the new Executive has many challenges in paying for public services, but their actions cannot be all about public services whilst ignoring businesses and jobs in the private sector...''

Minister Neale Richmond speaking in the Dáil yesterday evening: ‘I fully agree with you that [the return of the 9% VAT rate for food-based businesses] should be looked at’ It is very welcome to see that, following a meeting with the Restaurants Association of Ireland on Wednesday, Ministers Simon Coveney and Richmond seem to now have a comprehensive understanding of the challenges currently facing our industry and the urgent need for the 9% VAT rate to be reinstated for food-led businesses. The hospitality industry is not uniform. Small, independent restaurants and cafés across the country face some of the highest labour costs and smallest margins of any sector and should not be subject to the same VAT rate as accommodation providers that are experiencing sky-high profits.

Pub,cafes etc are much more than a business. A place where you can feel part of a community & for some will be the only human interaction someone has all day. They’ll also support local suppliers. Chains don’t give a shit. Drop VAT or you’ll lose more than just a “Business”

600 plus jobs gone since 2024 in the hospitality industry, if these where factory’s you would have TDs / Ministers out jumping into photos trying to save jobs . SMEs being destroyed daily .Vat must be replaced to 9% or mass job losses ahead.

With 20% VAT restaurants are not restaurants, they are tax collectors. Retail food has no VAT, restaurant food does. Why? Because of a daft, outdated definition of “value”. Only the Brits would trash their own food culture once it’s finally got going. Give us parity with Europe!

More needs to be done to support hospitality. The cost of doing business is just too high. The price could be losing more of our pubs and hospitality businesses that give vitality to our high streets towns and villages. mirror.co.uk/money/uk-restau…

The rise in minimum wage is fantastic news for millions and well overdue. The Govt aren’t giving you this though, businesses are. Many Hospitality businesses are breaking even/making a loss. A Spring VAT reduction is now needed more than ever, to offset this increase.

Living wage set to increase to £11.44 from April. Interested to hear how the Chancellor plans to help small businesses find the extra money? Don’t thank the government they’re not the ones paying for it…!

Yesterday The Chancellor did the media rounds saying on Wednesday he will "remove barriers to business growth." If he has listened to Hospitality, that will include reducing VAT to 12.5%. Extending Business Rates Relief Its not a question of growth, its a question of survival.

It’s becoming impossible for restaurants to make a profit. Unsustainable increases in food costs & VAT at 20% which is more than double the EU average is becoming a slow death for many! You can’t build a successful tourism industry without places for tourists to eat & drink
