Wetherspoon boss urges Government to avoid tax hikes as profits fall
Original: Wetherspoon's boss tells Government to 'refrain' from tax hikes as profits dip https://www.standard.co.uk/business/busin
Tim Martin, chairman of pub chain Wetherspoon, has called on the Government to refrain from raising taxes after the company reported a dip in profits. The businessman warned that further tax increases would harm the hospitality sector, which is already grappling with rising costs and fragile consumer spending.
Why now: Budget speculation has businesses lobbying against potential tax rises while profits are under pressure.
