Not very often, or ever before, I get quoted in the Times. A shame it’s about the crazy increases in business rates so many indie bookshops are facing this year. #businessrates #indiebookshops @libdemcam.bsky.social

The relief should not have been cut before the broken system was fully reformed as promised.
