Axe the Beer Tax! Save the Pub!
In an act of joined-up thinking and cooperation apparently rare among beer-related interest groups, CAMRA and the British Beer and Pub Association have joined forces to launch the Axe the Beer Tax, Save the Pub! campaign, with an online presence at www.axethebeertax.com.
By signing up to the mailing list, you can send an automatically generated email to your local MP asking that they join the campaign and protest the estimated 40% hike in beer duty this year (including the recently-announced rise intended to "off-set" the 2.5% drop in VAT that's supposed to rescue the ailing UK economy) that beer writers like Pete Brown have been vociferously challenging.
Head along to the site, sign up, show your support. Axe the Beer Tax!
