What an absolute mess..... shutting restaurants down for the 3rd time this year. Hospitality cannot keep doing this without proper support..... but don’t worry, we can all hangout for 5 days at Christmas....

Let me add my voice to the justifiably outraged clamour of those furious at the govt for insisting hospitality and entertainment industries shut down without legally mandating them to do so, meaning they can’t claim insurance. Staggeringly reckless.

"It's all about warm interiors imbued with a sense of nostalgia, informal yet pin-sharp service, and a locavore-friendly restaurant worth pigging out in." – @the_pig_hotel on the Beach still has it 👌🐷 Me for @TelegraphTravel #Dorset #Travel ➡️ telegraph.co.uk/travel/desti…

Honestly @BorisJohnson dont you understand the importance of the hospitality industry to rural Britain. We pay well, we train well, we look after people and we still have jobs to fill. The economic ripple huge, i have created 900 sustainable jobs in 10 yrs, why not encourage us.

Today I asked the question in parliament about how do we end Brexit if a hung parliament is returned. I got no answer. The general election is a front get ready for politicians to say your votes mean what ever they want it to mean.

Overheard in Berlin bakery: “Brexit is like a 97 year old royal behind the wheel. You know it’s a bad idea but are too polite to stop it.”

Gonna make a Saltbae style video but instead of sprinkling salt I'm going to stare vacantly at a chopping board for an hour thinking about how UK restaurants are going to survive with no foreign workers after no deal

You arrived 8pm Saturday. You gave your name. We had no record of the booking. You told us we were disgusting. We apologised (fuck knows why) You gave more abuse (drunk) We asked you to show the number you called... You showed us, It wasn’t sticky walnut. Stop being a dick x

When i think about the lengths we go to in hospitality to please guests why is it ok for @southwesttrains to charge £120 for a 55min journey but no seats available, just imagine if we made people stand up to eat for prebooked dinner reservation
