When labour took power they said they would help the high Street!
Small family run businesses have now seen there business rates INCREASED by 40% to 75%.
They also said they would make the big companies pay more tax to help the small businesses, however Tescos in the rushes have seen their business rates DECREASED by £35,000!!!
How can any small business absorb this, along with all the other increases that have been passed on to them. Do the government not want a high Street anymore and why are the big companies getting the help.
Please share this and email the local MP as we will see a Hugh amount of shops closing once this comes into effect. Jeevun Sandher
