If you haven't yet been to my wonderful little establishment in York, #TheHand, you really need to get yourselves down here and try a pint (or 3!) of our imported Alhambra. It's absolutely epic! 🍺🇪🇸
One for @PintsBeauty 👌

How would a Restore Britain Government support small businesses? First step, and possibly the most important. We understand the problems and trust me, I know how difficult it is. I’ve been there, I’ve done it. The effort that goes into keeping a small firm profitable and operational is vast, and NOBODY in Government understands that.
THE most important way to help small businesses is tax.
GET IT DOWN. Corporation tax - we should be aiming for the lowest in Europe. Undercut our neighbours, take their business. Be ruthless. Make Britain the most attractive place to operate on the continent. Watch how the money then flows in.
Rates will slashed on income and dividend, thresholds pushed up. We must urgently reward success. NI not raised, but cut. If we want businesses to hire, MAKE IT CHEAPER.
Because what happens when employment gets more expensive?
Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment is paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. They wait and see.
Everyone suffers.
IR35 will go in the bin on day one. Things change, contracts change, circumstances change. IR35 accounts for none of that, adding layers of unnecessary paperwork and regulation. Flexibility matters.
VAT threshold would be doubled. There are so many businesses hovering just under £90k, desperately avoiding VAT. Fair enough, I don’t blame them. So let’s hike the threshold and unleash that demand. We would like to see a tax holiday for small businesses in the first few years - give them the breathing space they need to grow and find their feet.
HMRC will pick up the phone, and you will be able to speak to an advisor who can actually speak fluent English. What a mad shock that would be...
We will end the HR-ification of Britain that is used to blackmail employers. Regulatory frameworks that are used to suffocate small businesses will be burnt away.
Farage attacks private sector employees working from home. I couldn’t give a shit where people choose to work. If the employer and employee are happy, then it’s none of our business.
Failing public sector officials? Different story.
Business rates for small businesses, abolished. We will brutally crack down on illicit trading - does Britain need so many Turkish barbers and vape shops? The answer, quite obviously, is no. Let’s be honest about what’s really often going on here. Money laundering.
There would be free car parking in high streets all over Britain. These little gnomes in councils have no idea. If parking is free at the retail parks, people will just go there. Let’s encourage them back into our high streets - that means tackling crime too, obviously, but one step a time here...
Licensing laws, planning bureaucracy, council red tape.
We will obliterate it all.
Let’s back British hospitality. Cut VAT, business rates abolished and burn back the endless nonsense they have to deal with. Ease laws on closing times and fast-track permits for outdoor seating. If people want to enjoy a late night drink or two, it's none of our business to tell them otherwise.
Restore Britain will put those jumped-up little council bastards back in their box. I promise you that.
Inheritance tax will be abolished. If a family wants to pass their business down the generations, then Government must not stand in the way. Tax has been paid, there should not be another bill following a death. It’s wicked and cruel.
Above all else - businesses need stable, long term thinking. The Budget should be a complete non-event, other than further tax cuts.
This can all be funded by brutalising down the fraudulent state that has become the enemy of the people.
And let me tell you this. ANYBODY who gets business will understand that these measures will pay for themselves many times over. If we reward hard work, then we’ll get more of it. More tax will be paid, and the economy will boom.
These are just my initial thoughts on what a Restore Britain Government would do.
We would create an environment in which it's easy to do business, and then we would leave you the hell alone.
The message is this to small business owners...
Restore Britain is on your side.
You finally have a political party that will fight for your interests.

Under a Restore Britain Government, every foreign national will lose access to welfare.
Healthy Brits who refuse to work will be given work. If they resist, they will lose their benefits.
Hardworking men and women will no longer fund the indolent.
The piss-take will end.

What the Hell’s going on with these two Thugs who broke a female Police Officer’s nose at Manchester Airport.
WHY haven’t they been sentenced yet, WHY isn’t anyone in the media talking about this?

Any retweets to help @metpoliceuk find this dangerous man who attacked my son and his car with his bike lock would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. The incident took place last night at Elephant & Castle.

Not a great pic, but there must have been 20-30 electric cars queuing for a charge at Gretna Welcome Break this afternoon. If that’s 40 mins charge each it would be around 3-4 hours some will wait to begin charging. Luckily I was in a V12 so just filled it up in about 3 mins. 💅
