THE GREAT HARRY, WOOLWICH, JOINS `DAY OF ACTION' IN TAX REDUCTION CAMPAIGN by Benson Agoha
The Great Harry, Woolwich - a Wetherspoon Freehouse - is to join other Freehouses in the Tax Reduction Campaign on Wednesday, September 25, 2013.
The campaign will use a price reduction tactic of 7.5% across all products ON THAT DAY ONLY to demonstrate what the public stand to benefit, if the government reduces or eliminates VAT on pub food and drinks.
Tim Martin, Chairman of Wetherspoon, has been one of the foremost supporters of the campaign to achieve parity between pub VAT and supermarkets.
The group, formed by Monsieur Jacques Borel in Paris in early 2010, has consistently campaigned for VAT reduction across Europe. The Campaigners argue that pubs should be charged no more VAT than supermarkets and grocery shops.
Through the Taxing Times bulletin, the Jacques Borel VAT CLUB has consistently campaigned for a reduction of VAT from 25% to 5% in order to create jobs and stimulate growth.
In a post in their official website, the campaigners declared Wednesday 25th September 2013, a national `day of action', to force the government to reduce the level of VAT in the hospitality sector.
The campaigners say a reduction, (a) will help pubs compete better with supermarket food and drink, (b) pay their staff better, (c) leave more money to invest in their sites, (d) leave them more money to invest in training and generally, (e) pulling in more customers through their doors, due to lower prices.
Little wonder this campaign is popular with pub landlords.
A staff of the Great Harry told Woolwich Online that they believe the day will be busy as customers check out the expected effect of a reduction in prices.
