@BorisJohnson The wedding industry needs support not to be ignored. Lara @LauncellsBarton and other wedding businesses cannot operate on no revenue until the summer when it returns to normal. Please do something! @RishiSunak

Fantastic to be back taking questions from the public this evening for #PeoplesPMQs

@LauncellsBarton You made the Huffington Post. Well done!

Fighting for everyone in the wedding industry today! #whataboutweddings

Well done Lara on your exchange with @10DowningStreet today at #PeoplesPMQs Great exchange to watch on weddings and good luck with your business! And on pushing the PM on his own plans. Good luck with your wedding

@LauncellsBarton @scullyp @AlokSharma_RDG Even if you both will not interact with members of the wedding industry, sometimes they have to go over your heads. You should be ashamed. Well done Lara @LauncellsBarton #whataboutweddings
English
@HarefieldBarn @LauncellsBarton @BorisJohnson @BorisJohnson Hopefully Lara @LauncellsBarton highlighted the plight of the wedding industry. If it will take for the summer to be normal or more normal how will her and other businesses survive on no revenue?
English
@LauncellsBarton Well done for a great interaction with @BorisJohnson this evening. Let's hope he took on board some of the points you made.
English
@AlokSharma_RDG @scullyp @aloksharma @scullyp Neither of you have done anything to support the wedding industry yet this is part of your responsibility. May be you should watch this tonight to see how doing nothing impacts livelihoods! #whataboutweddings #papakata bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-551…

It is incredibly sad news that Arcadia has entered into administration this evening
I know this will be a worrying time for employees and their families, especially in the run up to Christmas
The Govt stands ready to support those affected during this difficult period
(1/5)
English
@RishiSunak Why do you have a problem addressing the issues for hospitality businesses that are open but unable to trade? Why do wedding venues not have support and being ignored by the Government? Look at France and Germany they shame you.

@UKHospKate @RishiSunak Clearly the French leading the way in how to support hospitality businesses. What about wedding venues?
English
President Macron - announcing the closure of restaurants and bars - said that they would all receive a one off grant or a payment of 20% of lost turnover - that is in addition to full furlough available through 2021. A real 'solidarity fund'
English
@scullyp Alas the words "great to see action" are missing when it comes from you and your support of the wedding industry.
English
Great to see action to boost socio-economic diversity in the City of London and get more people from less privileged backgrounds into senior roles in the City.
We want to see an economy that works for everyone, from all walks of life.

@lindsaynaylor7 @scullyp @beisgovuk @AlokSharma_RDG What would you like to do to support the wedding industry? Silence is not good enough, it is a disgrace and so is the lack of financial support to an industry prevented from opening up fully. @RishiSunak @BorisJohnson #whataboutweddings
English
@scullyp if you are unable to speak up for the wedding industry then maybe someone else in @beisgovuk should? #whataboutweddings
English
@scullyp @Halfords_uk In case you haven't got the message people are hacked off by your lack of action to support the wedding industry. #whataboutweddings @RishiSunak @BorisJohnson
English
Fantastic to see @Halfords_uk gearing up for the festive period and recruiting over 1000 temp jobs 🚲🌳
This is a bit of good news about a retail business performing well and putting its success back into local economies like Sutton through job creation.

@Ed_Miliband Thank you for acknowledging the dire situation for the wedding industry. More debt from loans and furlough will not help many businesses survive. Something that @scullyp @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @AlokSharma_RDG fail to acknowledge.
English
Deeply concerned about the effect of today's announcement on hospitality and wedding sectors in absence of any announcement of extra economic support. Unless proper support forthcoming there is a real danger many businesses will not survive and these sectors will be decimated.
English
@WortonHall @scullyp @Colville_Hall @HarefieldBarn @maheen_93 @FRCnews I think it would be fair to say @scullyp stopped communicating with the ABWB Taskforce months ago, rather than weeks!
English
@scullyp @Colville_Hall @HarefieldBarn @maheen_93 @FRCnews We're a member of the ABWB. They have a taskforce already - you stopped communicating with this official body representing the wedding industry "with one voice" weeks ago - why? What's going to be different with the new taskforce?
English
Important research from @FRCnews outlining some of the barriers LGBTQ+ people face when progressing in business. It is clear that senior leaders have a responsibility to foster inclusive corporate cultures that accept and champion LGBTQ+ workers.

@scullyp @PeterBorgNeal @TomKitchin @bbcdebatenight @AlokSharma_RDG You may be having weekly calls with pub and restaurant owners but it is very clear on your Twitter feed you are ignoring the wedding industry. It has been 2 weeks since the recent debate for weddings and so far nothing! #whataboutweddings
English
@PeterBorgNeal @TomKitchin @bbcdebatenight @AlokSharma_RDG Thank you for sharing this Peter. I had my weekly call with restaurant & pub owners yesterday and see how difficult it is for so many. Working hard to give hospitality a fighting chance in December.
English
A clear and succinct explanation from @TomKitchin on @bbcdebatenight regarding the impact of lockdown / restrictions on the hospitality industry and our supply chain. @AlokSharma_RDG, @scullyp - please find a few moments to listen to it.
BBC Debate Night@bbcdebatenight
“All that money we’ve spent on PPE and making restaurants and hospitality super safe, is for what?” Chef @TomKitchin says that the current restrictions are leaving businesses struggling to pay their bills and stay open. #bbcdn

@scullyp @DjSpoonzay @SarahHaywood @scullyp @DjSpoonzay@SarahHaywood
We need your help and have been waiting for 12 weeks but you have ignored us! It is now time to step up to the plate and make things happen. We are waiting!
English
@DjSpoonzay @SarahHaywood That's the single best tweet I've seen in a long time about this hard pressed sector @DjSpoonzay
English
As kindly referenced by @scullyp in this evening's debate, looking forward to agreeing terms of reference to get the #WeddingsTaskforce off-the-ground. Unity is paramount! Very positive, constructive dialogue today with the Minister + BEIS to get our sector to the other side
English
@LucyMPowell @LucyMPowell Lucy thank you for speaking about the issues we as a wedding industry have been dealing with since March 2020. Hopefully we will see some progress soon.
English
Last night I spoke in the debate on live events and weddings. These sectors have lost nearly all their business during COVID yet have received little support. Most of all, they want a roadmap back to reopening. Other countries do it, so can we.
English
@LauncellsBarton @scullyp @BorisJohnson @scottmann4NC @EstherMcVey1 @scullyp Imagine if we ignored our clients for 12 weeks. We would not have a business so why should you have a job? @RishiSunak @EstherMcVey1 #whataboutweddings
English
@scullyp @LauncellsBarton You have had months to provide support for wedding businesses, even after 100,000 have signed a petition and dealing with the ABWB you have done nothing! We need action now not words! @RishiSunak @BorisJohnson #whataboutweddings
English
@LauncellsBarton I was at pains to state that pubs & restaurants went to extraordinary lengths to be Covid-19 secure. I certainly don't want to feed a narrative from some quarters that suggests otherwise & I know the wedding sector will be equally as diligent
English
@scullyp all those MP’s stood up and spoke about the misery and devastation that the wedding industry is currently in. All we’re asking for is a roadmap, understanding and support from you. Why is that so difficult? Where is the science around “super spreading” let us rapid test!
English
@LauncellsBarton @scullyp Please put @esthermckey1 on the wedding Taskforce. At least she will do something and has a clear understanding. @scullyp you have had months to work with the ABWB and yet you have done nothing!
English
#whataboutweddings @scullyp look how many people’s businesses have been devastated. We’ve had one arm tied behind our backs and told to carry on. We can track and trace, we can test, we can socially distance, so why won’t you let us put them into practice and save our businesses?
Steph Beqo@StephBeqo
@scullyp @LauncellsBarton Fantastic points raised tonight by local MP’s. I thought @EstherMcVey1 was excellent. @scullyp It was sole-destroying listening to your bumbling at the end of such a great debate. Did you take on board anything said tonight? NO answers NO help. Shame on you! #whataboutweddings
English
@scullyp Why are you talking about new wedding task forces when you abandoned the existing one who have wanted to talk testing trials and roadmap for 12 weeks? Action speaks louder than words!
English
@EstherMcVey1 I want to thank you for your eloquent summary of the plight of the wedding industry and in particular wedding venues. Thank you. Please could you join the Taskforce for weddings?
