Stop punishing Pubs & Publicans, let pubs open without the substantial meals.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to stop blaming the pub industry and let us re-open with covid-19 procedures in place.
I want the government to allow pubs to re open without having to have a substantial meal.
I want the government to do this because they have blamed pubs, bars & restaurants from day one for the spread of covid-19 with no evidence to back it up.
Other businesses have had the chance to re open and protect there lively hoods.
Publicans and all hospitality staff have families to look after too.
We have spent thousands putting procedures in place, we did track and trace, we did table service, we did everything you asked of us.
STOP BLAMING THE WRONG INDUSTRY AND SAVE OUR PUBS!!!!
