Save our Somerset Pubs

Save The Local Petition

Labour is raising taxes on 430 pubs and bars across Somerset! 

Labour's tax rises are hitting our local Somerset Pubs hard. Pub Landlords are facing a tsunami wave of increased taxes and employee costs, and punters will pay more at the bar.

And Rachel Reeves has rubbed salt in the wound by announcing an insulting 1p off the price of a pint!

This tax hike will force landlords to raise prices or shut their doors for good.
- £1,000s extra in business rates per pub
- £800 extra per worker in National Insurance
- Higher pint prices for everyone
- Landlords forced to police conversations that could offend

We've launched a petition to hold Labour to account, Support your Local! Sign and share our petition here - www.SaveTheLocal.com
