Tom Kerridge’s campaign,

Right now, UK hospitality businesses are being held back and pushed to the brink by the VAT rate of 20%.
Imagine what a reduced 10% VAT rate could do for pubs, restaurants, bars, and hotels:
● Fairer rates like Europe
● Stronger pubs & communities
● More growth, more jobs
Across Europe, hospitality is supported with fairer VAT rates — so why not here? 🇬🇧

Our pubs deserve to thrive, not just survive ❤️

I was sent this by a client who was outraged. I have always loved Guinness adverts, marketing and POS are always good quality and top notch, but this at a time when so many hospitality venues are struggling I feel is a bit of a kick in the teeth for the pub trade once again. I understand the humor behind it but just bad timing.
Anybody else? Whats your thoughts?
