Another nail in the coffin of the british pub.
That Cunt Alistair Darling has increased Cider duty by 10% and beer by 5% meaning an extra 10p a pint now in the pub. Another dagger in the heart of pubs. So much in trying to stop over 40 pubs a week shutting in the UK! As a side note, Tax on beer in Britain is now 11 times higher than Germany, nine times higher than Spain and seven times higher than France.
For smokers fags gone up 4% meaning an extra 25p a packet.
Fuel up by 1p
You'll be pleased to know Gazza that the cider duty has been dropped
