You can’t trust Plaid to treat Welsh students fairly.
🚩WALES TOURISM: A HELPING HAND OR A HOSTILE TAKEOVER? 🏴 The Welsh Government has officially fired the starting gun on its new Mandatory Licensing Scheme. While they call it "simple registration," the industry is calling it a Trojan Horse. Deadline: Autumn 2026 From late 2026, it becomes illegal to charge for an overnight stay in Wales without being registered with the Welsh Revenue Authority. ⚠ Why This Is More Than Just "Admin": The "Tourist Tax" Foundation: This register isn't about "quality" , it's the digital infrastructure needed to slap a Visitor Levy on every stay from 2027. You’re being forced to build a system that will eventually tax you. Red Tape Overload: Between the near-impossible 182-day rule and 300% council tax premiums, this is yet another hoop for small, local businesses to jump through. The Death of the "Side Hustle": Renting out a spare room or a shepherd’s hut to pay the bills? You’re now in the government's crosshairs. For many, the paperwork and the threat of penalties will make hosting more trouble than it’s worth. Making Wales Uncompetitive: With no such tax or mandatory register in England, we are effectively telling tourists "Go to the Cotswolds or the Lakes, it's cheaper and easier there. The Reality Check Is this about "standards," or is it about squeezing a hospitality sector that is already struggling with a cost-of-living crisis and plummeting visitor numbers? By the time the Visitor Levy kicks in in 2027, how many local Welsh B&Bs will be left to collect it? Have your say: Is this the "level playing field" we were promised, or is it the final nail in the coffin for independent Welsh tourism? 👇 #SaveWelshTourism #TourismTax #WalesBusiness #ShortTermLets #WRA #CymruEconomy #RegulatoryOverload
A high-speed train is passing through the high-speed railway station at full speed. It looks cool.😎
