Government Ignoring Small Hospitality Business Energy Costs.
Whilst the Conservative government continues to deal with scandals and sleaze allegations, the real world and its problems lurches on. Small businesses across the country are facing a huge energy bill increase once Government support is slashed in April. The Government initially capped the cost of business energy, but from April they are replacing that scheme and will instead just pay a small proportion of businesses' increased costs. This means many pubs, cafes and restaurants will see a 90% cut in help from the government.
