The workers are the engine force of the Night Time Economy. The bar staff, waiters, waitresses, chefs, kitchen porters, taxis, hotel workers, security, emergency services etc. You’ve made Manchester the Sunday Times UK’s Capital of Nightlife. Thank you.

Everyone knows how badly Hospitality suffered during Covid and how we are still fighting for survival. The fact that yesterday, the PM imposed the biggest tax hike in 50 years on our sector speaks volumes. He really doesn't care. It's scandalous.

Julia sends a message to Sadiq Khan as his Ulez expansion begins in London. “You’re not just a liar, Sadiq Khan, you’re also a coward. You won’t come on my show and answer any questions on behalf of the millions affected by these absolutely outrageous policies.” Julia Hartley-Brewer

These are men at “A Let Women Speak” event in Liverpool, all masked up abusing, threatening & deliberately intimidating women who just want to speak peacefully about their rights. These women would never treat other groups who wish to meet up in this way. This is one way

This is London. Recognise it? Nor do I. Imagine after the London Terror attacks people had done this to support ISIS… would that have been okay? This is NOT okay..

We said ‘never again.’ The UK was a safe haven. Now, after the biggest massacre of Jews since the holocaust, British Jewish children are being advised to hide their identities as they walk to school, for their own safety. There should be mass outrage that this is necessary.

Who are these affluent young Londoners, in the safety of our capital, tearing down pictures of women and children maimed, tortured and abducted by Hamas? What mindset would lead you to do that? Who has poured the poison in their ears to make them behave like this? And why is it

This is a disgrace. Suella Braverman MP you need to call a state of emergency. Ban the marches or get water cannons, call the army in and ban face coverings. Watch the footage our police officers are surrounded they are NOT safe. Absolutely disgusting to witness this attitude to our

This is an absolute disgrace. We have allowed people into our country that despise everything we stand for. Both Labour and the Tories have done this to us.

Sadiq Khan "misled public" with his claims about the benefits of ULEZ to air quality in London, says the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). We know he lied. He knows he lied. So now what happens? What's the penalty for those lies? telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/11/1…

There has never been a more important time to move fast Rt Hon John Glen MP with this Budget. Make the decision to reduce VAT to 12.5% in hospitality. The staff cost increase is too hard to budget without something on the other side. Keep our high streets vibrant.

Every single Hospitality venue across the UK is being crucified or closed by untenable energy bills. Yesterday British Gas posted record profits of £751 million. 10 times the previous year of £72 million. Anyone else angry? Morning Ofgem.

I am woman hear me Roar! And I will keep on roaring until we are not told our feelings & rights are less important. Come roar with us, it’s been a colossal struggle for generations of women gone before to get these rights & opportunities, with good men beside us, we fight on.

Seb Coe gets it. Nicola Adams gets it. Barry McGuigan, Daley Thompson, Sharron Davies, Martina Navratilova get it…
