Episode Details

Top chefs are rallying behind Andy Burnham for prime minister, backing his bold plan to slash VAT in hospitality from 20% to 10%—aligning with rates in France, Spain, and Italy. They argue this vital cut is the lifeline struggling pubs, restaurants, and hotels desperately need, especially amid soaring business rates, energy bills, and national insurance. With stars like Tom Kerridge praising Burnham’s deep understanding of hospitality’s cultural and economic heartbeat, supporters see him as the only leader who truly grasps the sector’s pain—and potential. His proven success in reviving Manchester’s food scene makes him the candidate who could transform the nation’s hospitality industry if given the chance.
