BBC 5 Live with Kate Nicholls last night talking #TouristTax: Just about survived :)

Will I listen back? Absolutely not.

Back from the market and taking a quiet moment at home with a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich before heading back into the fray.

Essential December self-care.

I thought I'd seen something announced recently about Mayors being given the powers to implement a #TouristTax which is good but fairly feeble from a devolution POV

The #TouristTax is necessary. But as you say it’s not going to be a substitute for proper interventions like a WPL or congestion charge.

Tourism brings benefits, but it also brings costs that councils in financial freefall are currently forced to cover.

A tourist tax is a reasonable way to rebalance this. And we should pair it with VAT cuts that help local pubs and community events thrive.

Budget 2025: The central theme of the Budget appears to be a major package of tax rises and measures to stabilise the public finances and create significant "headroom" against the government's fiscal rules.

So the English government in Westminster and their agents opposed the #TouristTax in #Cymru and Scotland but now it’s ok for England.
A bit like #20mph🤷🏻‍♂️.

As an aside, the announcement that combined authorities will be able to levy a #TouristTax (while it sounds dangerosuly like actual devolution) hopefully means other powers will follow.

England’s lack of a local #TouristTax makes it an international outlier🧳

The metro mayors are campaigning to change this in England and secure tourist tax powers.

This briefing looks at how a tourist tax should work for England’s mayors? 👇

There is of course a #TouristTax! We were charged 7 € a night. The hotel make that tax quite explicit, so it's very clear. And when you see the massive strain that tourists impose on the city, its a good thing.

#Edinburgh feeling very full, but vibrant!
Just think, if many of these people are paying #TouristTax....we might have public toilets and a Hunter Square that isn't taken over by anti-social element!
