Stop the holiday tax!

A 5% Holiday Tax, a policy long championed by the Liberal Democrats, has now been approved by the Government.

This decision will hit the South West hardest, one of the most tourism-dependent regions in the United Kingdom.

The Holiday Tax is an act of economic self-harm for the South West. It punishes families for choosing to holiday at home and punishes small businesses simply for operating here.

Our region relies on domestic tourism to sustain jobs and incomes. Even a modest shift towards overseas travel will cost local jobs, cut wages, and damage already fragile coastal economies. Ministers must reverse this damaging decision immediately.

Residents, workers and business owners across the South West are being urged to stand up for local jobs and family finances.
