Getting Britain Dancing Again
Join us at Liberal Democrat Part Conference to discuss the obstacles and solutions for the hospitality industry.
Sky-high energy costs, excessive licensing laws, inhibitive taxes and little freedom to run their businesses as they want are creating a perfect storm against local pub-owners, bar staff and nightclubs. How can we help the hospitality industry, the night-time economy and those who want a good night out?
In discussion on this panel will be Paul Kohler MP (Liberal Democrat MP for Wimbledon, Transport Spokesperson and Chair of the Night Time Economy APPG), Caroline Voaden MP (Liberal Democrat MP for South Devon and Vice-Chair of the Hospitality APPG), Luke Cheadle (Public Affairs & Policy Manager at UKHospitality) and Jasper Ostle (Engagement and Operations Manager at the Adam Smith Institute).
