Beer duty escalator abolished!

I wrote about the Beer Duty Escalator in a previous post and obviously that post (are you really crediting yourself with this change - faithless ed) in conjunction with the Stop the Beer Duty e-petition has been a resounding success!

Well done to The Chanceller for not only abolishing the escalator (shares in Otis headed downwards after this announcement - ed), but more much more than that - he has cut the price by 1p from Sunday, but given that that is at the wholesale level it is unlikely that the price of a pint at the 'bar face' (coal face - ed) is unlikely to go down.
