Could we see the return of the £2.99 pint? 🍻

Could a three-pound pint finally be
0:02
making a comeback? Wetherspoon boss Tim
0:04
Martin is making headlines for backing a
0:06
new tax package for the hospitality
0:09
sector proposed by Reform leader Nigel
0:11
Farage, which he says could slash the
0:13
price of your local pint to just £2.99.

Martin is calling for tax parity with
0:18
supermarkets, arguing that his sites
0:20
have lost half their trade to retailers
0:22
like Tesco over the last 20 years
0:24
because of higher taxes on pubs. Cutting
0:26
back those extra taxes, he argues, could
0:29
see pint prices come back down to where
0:32
they were years ago. But that's not all.
0:34
He's also doubling down on his
0:36
controversial dog policy. After 15 staff
0:38
members were bitten by dogs in just 1
0:40
year, Spoons now requires official
0:42
training papers for assistance dogs to
0:44
keep everyone safe. Tag someone who
0:46
loves a good pint and tell us in the
0:48
comments, are you team Spoons on this
0:50
one?
