Indeed, you are quite right. Why should we be that bothered about the wiping-out of a Huddersfield Industry?
I read, and some will know, that from Huddersfield comes a 'healthy' tipple called "Black Beer". This is drunk in the main, for it's medicinal properties, by the elderly and has enjoyed a tax-break since 1931 because of it's much avowed medicinal properties. Not so from April.
How much a 68cl bottle costs at the moment I don't know, but the price could rise by as much as £2 a bottle.
Need I say more?
Add to this the continuing price hike in tipples of all sorts and the nonsense about minimum pricing and it's goodbye Pub.
On the brighter side for those who reside by the sea, and especially for those on the Kent coast they may, as with savings, take their business off-shore.
As for the grannies of the hinterland, well life has got that little bit less worth living.
