Reeves could be remembered as the Chancellor who destroyed our pubs
Businesses have been hit hard by the Government's increase in employer national insurance contributions and a higher minimum wage. Their profit margins are squeezed and they are forced to lay off staff or not recruit new ones. How that helps in the pursuit of growth is anyone's guess. The impact of the Chancellor's ill-starred Budget last autumn is being felt everywhere, not least in the retail sector where high street shops are all cutting jobs. Tesco is closing some of its stores early after facing a £235 million increase in staff costs, and it will not be the only supermarket chain looking at ways to mitigate the impact. The British Retail Consortium estimates the total financial hit to the sector is around £7 billion. But there is one sector that is particularly feeling the pinch: hospitality. One in three pubs and restaurants is now said to be losing money. This is at a time when the future of many pubs was already jeopardised by changing drinking habits, with an average of 80 closing their doors every month. Pubs are vital community assets, the beating heart of many towns and villages that have already been hollowed out by the loss of shops and post offices. The pandemic hit the sector particularly hard, with prolonged closures and restrictions reducing profits even if they did get financial help. Supply chain disruptions, high inflation and soaring energy costs have added to their woes. To have piled even greater pressure at such a time was an ultimately self-defeating decision by Rachel Reeves, since the revenues that would accrue from business and their staff will no longer be available if they close. To be remembered as the Chancellor who closed the pubs is not a legacy she would want.

High-end supermarket dubbed ‘Waitrose of the North' with 27 stores set to close city centre branch after 16 years
A HIGH-END supermarket chain is set to close it branch in a city centre after 16 years. The upmarket grocer Booths, dubbed the " Waitrose of the North", will close its store in Ripon. It comes as the store struggled to generate a profit in the Yorkshire cathedral city, the BBC has reported. The lease of the Marshall Way branch is likely to be taken over by Tesco, it is understood. Residents have told the broadcaster that they will be "sorry to see it go". While Booths has 27 stores across the north of England, only three are in Yorkshire. The majority of its locations are dotted across Lancashire and Cumbria. Booths' other Yorkshire stores in Ilkley and Settle are expected to remain open. Owner of The Little Ripon Bookshop Simon Edwards, whose shop opened around the same time as the Ripon Booths in 2009, told the BBC: "Booths has an affinity with our shop - we both attract customers who appreciate the human touch. "If it was closing and no one was replacing it, we would be worried, especially with the new Next store opening out of town, next door to the expanded M&S food hall. "It's a relief that Tesco will be taking it over and it won't be empty. "Ripon was probably a bit of an outlier for Booths. When you get to Lancashire, you see them everywhere and it's much better known." Popular retailer to RETURN 13 years after collapsing into administration and shutting 236 stores The cathedral city still boasts a Sainsbury's in its town centre, as well as a nearby Aldi, a Morrisons to the south - and an M&S food hall at St Michael's Retail Park. Residents expressed their sadness at Ripon Booths' closure to the BBC. Jill Smith, who drives five miles to do her shopping there, told the broadcaster: "I like the fact the staff are very friendly and it's just got some different bits and pieces in that you don't get in Tesco. "They seem to support local producers. So it's just sad, but it's just the way things are." Why are retailers closing stores? RETAILERS have been feeling the squeeze since the pandemic, while shoppers are cutting back on spending due to the soaring cost of living crisis. High energy costs and a move to shopping online after the pandemic are also taking a toll, and many high street shops have struggled to keep going. However, additional costs have added further pain to an already struggling sector. The British Retail Consortium has predicted that the Treasury's hike to employer NICs from April will cost the retail sector £2.3billion. At the same time, the minimum wage will rise to £12.21 an hour from April, and the minimum wage for people aged 18-20 will rise to £10 an hour, an increase of £1.40. The Centre for Retail Research (CRR) has also warned that around 17,350 retail sites are expected to shut down this year. It comes on the back of a tough 2024 when 13,000 shops closed their doors for good, already a 28% increase on the previous year. Professor Joshua Bamfield, director of the CRR said: "The results for 2024 show that although the outcomes for store closures overall were not as poor as in either 2020 or 2022, they are still disconcerting, with worse set to come in 2025." It comes after almost 170,000 retail workers lost their jobs in 2024. End-of-year figures compiled by the Centre for Retail Research showed the number of job losses spiked amid the collapse of major chains such as Homebase and Ted Baker. It said its latest analysis showed that a total of 169,395 retail jobs were lost in the 2024 calendar year to date. This was up 49,990 – an increase of 41.9% – compared with 2023. It is the highest annual reading since more than 200,000 jobs were lost in 2020 in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced retailers to shut their stores during lockdowns. The centre said 38 major retailers went into administration in 2024, including household names such as Lloyds Pharmacy, Homebase, The Body Shop, Carpetright and Ted Baker. Around a third of all retail job losses in 2024, 33% or 55,914 in total, resulted from administrations. Experts have said small high street shops could face a particularly challenging 2025 because of Budget tax and wage changes. Professor Bamfield has warned of a bleak outlook for 2025, predicting that as many as 202,000 jobs could be lost in the sector. "By increasing both the costs of running stores and the costs on each consumer's household it is highly likely that we will see retail job losses eclipse the height of the pandemic in 2020." Avril Kernow said she would be unlikely to go back when the store becomes a Tesco. She said: "We quite like Booths. The others are all much the same. "You always get something a bit different in there. "It isn't always cheap, but it's good and the staff are good. "And it's convenient, so we think it's a shame." Ripon MP Sir Julian Smith said: "I am grateful to Booths for their years of service to Ripon. "Tesco's decision to take over the site shows confidence in the city's future, and I stand ready to work with Tesco to ensure the transition supports the community."

Major change coming to Tesco stores as company trials new opening hours after Rachel Reeves' tax raid
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TESCO is trialling new opening hours in a major change following soaring costs after Rachel Reeves' tax raid. The supermarket is testing out new hours in a bid to cut staffing costs. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Tesco CEO Ken Murphy previously slammed the changes in the Budget Credit: Reuters 3 It is unclear how many stores will be in the trial Credit: PA Workers were told that a few of the Tesco Express stores which don't rake in as much cash will be the testing grounds. These Tesco stores will shut an hour earlier, at 10pm instead of 11pm. They will also have fewer staff working during these hours, The Telegraph reported. It is understood that the trial is only taking place in a "small number" of stores, but the exact number is unclear. A spokesperson said the shake up is to ensure the shops are being run in the "most efficient way". The move comes after Tesco's chief executive said that the supermarket is facing a wave of soaring costs following the Chancellor's tax raid in April. Tesco said it was facing a rise in staffing costs, in part due to a £235m increase in National Insurance contributions and the rise in minimum wage. The chain previously warned it would be axing £500million of costs to tackle this. Retailers are believed to be facing around £7billion in extra costs following the Budget. A Tesco spokesperson said: "These changes aren't visible to our customers, who will continue to receive the same great service they expect, and there are no changes to the range of products we sell." The basic wage for workers aged over 21 increased from £11.44 to £12.21 — instantly hiking staffing costs. But most firms are more concerned about the dramatic changes to employers' National Insurance Contributions, which will make hiring even tougher. Companies have warned that the changes are to drastically impact part-time workers, soon to become 13 per cent more expensive overnight. The contributions will go up from 13.8 per cent to 15 per cent from April 6, but the main impact comes from lowering the threshold it starts being paid at from £9,000 to £5,000, roping in many more part-time staff. One FTSE chief executive told The Sun that it was 'completely the wrong strategy for the Government to be pursuing if they want to encourage more people back into work with flexible jobs'. Meanwhile, a slew of reports suggest companies are already cutting jobs, freezing hiring and preparing to hike prices, with inflation predicted to hit 3.5 per cent later this year.
