Absolutely disgusted to hear about Sycamore Gap this morning & that someone has chainsawed down this beautiful tree. I literally cannot understand why someone would do something like that. At least I'll have the memory of shooting the Milky Way here, one cold January night.

@paulspencer1973 awful news. Beggars belief really.

Absolutely devastated. Feels like part of the North East identity has been stripped away. I guess it has…

@300PGF @daisyturnell wow, that's lovely. Is that at La Trappe?

oh and the duty on cask hasn't even gone down!

Lies. 1. This has nothing to do with Brexit. We obviously had the power to change taxation when in the EU 2. Despite these changes, UK alcohol duty will still be much higher than the EU average 4. Pubs are struggling. You should reduce their £energy & rates not the price of a 9

@BeerNouveau and/or they'll brew it to 3.4% and continue to market it at 3.6%

Dear @BBCNews @bbcbreakast Yesterday Beer Duty Rate £19.08 per Hectolitre %ABV This morning thats £21.01 an INCREASE of 10.1%. They have provided a discount for draught beer to £19.08 Please stop parroting Gov statements and check facts #detailed-proposal" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">gov.uk/government/pub…

Nothing to see here, just your teetotal PM pouring beer while pretending that the biggest increase in duty on some drinks for 50 years is actually a reduction and lying about it being a benefit of Brexit.

For avoidance of doubt, to anyone expecting beer prices to fall dramatically as promised by some MPs, please see the explanation from HMRC

A photo of what is now The Castle pub in #Nottingham taken in 1885 only two years after it was designed and built by Watson Fothergill for a private owner. Today it still has the original fantastic stained-glass window decorations too!🙌 #ThenAndNow @No1tingham @Nottinghasm

There are 1,000+ negative stories per month in Brit media about trans people. Almost exclusively negative. All written by non-trans journos. There are zero trans columnists, presenters or reporters. #AndrewNeil

@IndiaWilloughby @henryaryaxz He's widely regarded by his peers as a shitty human being. I taught in a dept of journalism studies & the stories the ex-hacks shared about him were wild.

@henryaryaxz Yes that’s him

@Torrside wow, amazing news. Congrats! So is Smokefest still going to be at the brewery, or will it relocate to the tap?

Local news 🙌

@drinksmaven @teamdb excellent article, thanks for posting it

Brewing sector hits back at Sunak’s ‘PR stunt’ at beer festival. An impassioned response from an industry that feels disenfranchised, invisible & struggling to be heard amidst swathes of rising cost challenges. @teamdb thedrinksbusiness.com/2023/08/brewin…

We do look forward to soon seeing our building saved from Nottingham, and rebuilt in its full glory at #Chilwell #BartonQuarter

@bartonsplc Excellent. It's a beautiful building (which I always thought would be great repurposed as a brewery tap!) Cheers

I don’t drink alcohol so why am I passionate about #ukpubs. The answer is because they provide communities with unique social spaces. They are economically, socially and culturally important. They are sites of our national and local history and heritage #notjustapub
