Great to join hundreds of MPs, Peere and members’ businesses in the House of Commons to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the hospitality sector and the strategies needed to help unlock recovery, growth and investment
“It’s important that if we are to have that economic growth, hospitality will be the one to deliver it. We create powerful career opportunities and pathways to social mobility. We are the underpinning of growth, the unlocker of investment” says our CEO @UKHospKate.

Higher prices - and inflation - are inevitable given the additional tax and costs being loaded onto hospitality and retail as a result of the Budget. Largest of these is the halving of threshold for NICs, bringing many more workers into the scope of a jobs tax for first time
Higher food and energy prices are expected to have kept inflation at 2.6% last month when the latest monthly figures are published in the next hour. The Chancellor Rachel Reeves has admitted she needs to go 'further and faster' to improve economic growth. @SwainITV has the

Biden: I know some in the incoming administration.. they don’t even believe climate change is real. I think they come from a different century. They are wrong. Dead wrong. It’s the single greatest existential threat to humanity.

If Treasury is modelling French style levy I hope they are modelling French VAT too - even with VAT and tourist tax, visitors in France, Spain, Italy, Greece pay less than we do with 20% VAT. We are the least competitive on price - hotels pay 75% tax rate

Treasury officials are thought to have done 'modelling exercises' over the impact of introducing a 'tourist tax' similar to that in France as part of efforts by Rachel Reeves to stabilise finances

Vamos, @RafaelNadal! As you get ready to graduate from tennis, I’ve got a few things to share before I maybe get emotional. Let’s start with the obvious: you beat me—a lot. More than I managed to beat you. You challenged me in ways no one else could. On clay, it felt like I

Stark analysis from @DeutscheBank suggesting double the number of jobs could be at risk as a result of NIC change & all workers will see a hit to take home pay wages suppressed by £5.6bn. It’s regressive - it hits the lowest paid, part time and predominantly women. Rethink needed

This video gave me goosebumps: retired workers are chanting the name of a woman who bravely protested forced hijab by undressing in public. It’s powerful to see the older generation defying the regime’s attempts to silence a woman who used her body to protest against Islamic
In Iran, a student harassed by her university’s morality police over her “improper” hijab didn’t back down. She turned her body into a protest, stripping to her underwear and marching through campus—defying a regime that constantly controls women’s bodies. Her act is a powerful

The effect of inflationary pressures from energy, wages and cost of supply - and a timely reminder that hospitality is three times as impactful on the basket of goods calc than energy - you cannot get control of inflation unless you get control of pre profit taxes and costs
The cost of many foodstuffs has risen sharply since early 2022 so it is perhaps little wonder that the price index for restaurants and cafes has climbed at a slightly swifter rate than the headline consumer price index in recent times.

1/When I protested against mandatory hijab, after the security forces arrested me, my family was pressured to declare me mentally ill, the Islamic republic of Iran even taking me to a forensic doctor. One of my relatives came to see me in prison and shared the situation.

In Iran, a woman who was accosted by the “morality police” for not wearing hijab removes her clothing & roams the streets in defiance. She has since been arrested by IRGC forces and forcibly disappeared. This is the brave face of true resistance.

This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala
Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

For some reason, I have been thinking about this moment a lot today. It's from John McCain in 2008 at a town hall. The woman begins to espouse conspiracy theories about Barack Obama's nationality. He immediately shuts it down. "No ma'am. He's a decent family man."
