The Government is offering just £1,000 as a one-off payment in December to pubs in Tiers 2 and 3 that don't sell food, that is 'wet pubs,' as announced by the Prime Minister earlier today (sky). What a disgrace! What is it that the apparent puritans in Government have against pubs?!?
First, how the hell can publicans get by on just a grand, it's as though Government Ministers want pubs to go under, I wonder if they've been given stuffed brown envelopes by property developers? It wouldn't surprise me with this bunch of corrupt incompetents!
Second, why is it just the hospitality sector that is being hit by the Government? Gyms are returning, hairdressers are returning, museums, football crowds, everyone except pubs, the one sector that actually managed the COVID-19 Crisis between the lockdowns, spending out on 'mitigations' requested of them by Government, administering 'track & trace' records, sanitizing regularly, ensuring social distancing etc etc!
Indeed, the rate of COVID-19 is decreasing, see my other blog for example, whilst the Government puts at risk the future of our pubs, I'm sad, but also I'm very angry! 😡
