#142 - Kate Nicholls OBE, UKHospitality

Join us in Episode 142 of the Ceres Podcast with Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UKHospitality. Their discussion zeroes in on three pivotal policy proposals: capping business rate increases, revising employer National Insurance Contributions, and advocating for a reduced VAT rate for hospitality.  Kate offers a deep dive into the nuances of each ask, critically examining their potential impact on both small independents and larger chains.  Through a thoughtful debate, we uncover the broader implications of these policies, explore the balance between ambition and practicality, and contemplate the government's role in prioritising support for different sectors.  Join us as we dissect the intricacies of these proposals, their significance for the industry, and the path forward in advocating for meaningful change.
