It seems the giant #pubcos & their lobbyists the BBPA are rattled after the very unconvincing display from #pubco bosses at the @CommonsBEIS evidence session last week! Putting on a lavish event (with free beer for MPs!) with a few handpicked tenants! Not the many unhappy ones!
Brilliant to be with members today in Parliament to showcase and celebrate #PartneredPubs with MPs and publicans from across the country, cheers everyone for coming 🍻

We believe that Tom Astley should be asked to give evidence to @CommonsBEIS. There are serious questions to answer #PubsCode #pubs
Utterly extraordinary statement from Fiona Dickie @pubscodepca telling @CommonsBEIS people should send her evidence. She dropped the #PCA’s OWN evidence collated by Tom Astley & has failed to act over numerous issues raised by tenants & tenants’s groups. #pubs

Re previous comment by Cllr about large nos of pubs - note that Temperance Movement in 1886 used this to map pubs as "Plague" dots. Today, only a couple of pubs left Aldgate->Whitechapel->Mile End. So where Temperance failed, modern developers annihilated an historic thoroughfare

Anyone who wishes to amplify concern on the demolition of The Albion and subsequent extension, can do so via [email protected] quoting ref: 20/AP/3339 Southwark Council - or steer to interested pub parties £1.2m freehold

In general reports are that pub-goers behaved responsibly yesterday and were excited and appreciative.
Some amusing anecdotes: the guy who brought his own beer to a pub in Cambridge, and some who asked to go inside as it was cold.

Easter greetings to you all. Week away from getting our pubs back- be it their gardens. As the spring flowers blossom as do our hopes for the public house, it’s realm and their importance to community wellbeing. Cheers 🍺♥️

*BREAKING*
1/3
The reason there is not a Substantial Meal rule in current road map.
Someone in Hospitality stood up to the unscientific restrictions & won.
ALL future restrictions imposed ,will have to be backed up with evidence!
Small win with HUGE consequences

Not quite sure where @RishiSunak got the average annual rent of a pub or restaurant is “Somewhere between £14k - £20k” from? All 3 pubs I own are above £40k per year #nopubnorent #pubsmatter #longlivethelocal #saveourpubs @UKHospKate @ThePubChampion @ProtectPubs @LoveyourpubInfo – at Southbourne, England
