This thread is very interesting.
I don’t know who Gareth is but all his responses to people are 100% factually correct & it really highlights that most people’s assumptions about the cost of basic business & the cost of employment are wrong

Reminder that it costs €35k per annum to employ someone in a coffee shop on minimum wage, but people can't understand why a croissant costs €5.

Energy Rip Off: I strongly urge the Gov't to step in and give Ofgem more powers.
Hospitality is very energy intensive. We cannot see a return to the start of the Ukraine war, when the Energy Co's saw us as a cash grab, with cowboy brokers locking operators into untenable 3 to 5 year inflated contracts.
The same year they posted record profits.

Employment costs are far too high, and it’s deterring small firms from hiring young people.
We need an uprate in the Employment Allowance, help with high energy costs and easing of business rates to help small firms.

When we took over this derelict country pub 3 years ago we had absolutely no plans to start a guest chef series. Last Wednesday we hosted our 60th event & it was a truly special occasion because chef Phil Howard came to cook! Chef Phil Howard spent 3 days with us up in Churton & here’s a glimpse of what went down! If you like the sound of our guest chef series we have 42 events planned this year alone, so please pop over to our website to check them out. Thank you 🧑🍳👩🍳

Businesses are struggling & jobs being lost because costs are too high.
In their letter to me Donald Russell pointed to “rising costs of doing business.”
You don’t have to look much further than rising Business Rates & Labour’s National Insurance hikes. pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/695702…

How are you going to improve youth (or any) unemployment if you keep increasing the cost to businesses of employing people? If you make employing folk such a difficult and unattractive proposition, no wonder unemployment is growing. People actually deserve a proper Chancellor!

@LBC What about increased national insurance
Increased bills and energy
Tax increases
Cone on it’s not just minimum wage
English
@LBC Can you put a question to James please ?
James have you ever employed a single person or run a business?
No ? Ahh ok stop telling people who have, that they’re unviable if they can’t soak up all the increases from the last 2 years.
We’re not unviable the government is.
