That sounds gross tbh , but I expect you get change from a fiver and it’s probably hard to fuck it up even if they just drag someone off the street into the kitchen so it’s a win/win

You can be against trafficking and enjoy porn , against slave labour and still buy cheap stuff. Have you not heard of capitalism ?

I don't get why so many people don't like weatherspoons.

To be fair almost everyone I've been in was immaculate, food was good and I couldn't fault the alcohol.

The worst thing I would say about it is some of the clientele can be a bit rough, but you always get that where cheap drinks are served.

I get everyone's frustration with the owner but if everyone felt the same and refused to go in because of his actions, it would be the staff who suffer most. As much as I dislike how he's behaved throughout this, I won't just stop going in, the food and drink are usually spot on!

People are very fickle though , many of the same people loved him when he was ploughing money into Brexit. He’s an ardent libertarian and successful businessman and has a law degree so his actions were very predictable imo.

It's cheaper than it would be in other places because Wetherspoons has big buying power and that = lower prices.

Honestly I've been in much more expensive places and the food tasted terrible.

The food isn’t comparable to a good restaurant no, but when a family of 4 can get 3 courses and drinks for around £40 it works for a lot of people.

Yes there are chavs and some rough customers , but all pubs represent the communities they serve , those people exist ! personally we don’t have any issue mixing with different types of people , from different backgrounds, different views, posh people can be just as nasty!

Think he means the breweries who charge the landlords high prices for the beer, and they're locked into that supplier, which the landlords then have to pass on to the customer. Rather than the landlords choice to charge double.

Yes I understand they can't compete exactly with wetherspoons but the village I live in has centrally about 10 pubs and the cheapest pint you can get of normal bitter is £3.70

I'm sure if a wetherspoon's opened here you could knock quite a bit off that £1.71 more expensive im sure that isnt all due to cost from brewers.

Even the owned pubs who can shop around is the same price

The reason Wetherspoons is so comparatively cheap is because they buy kegs that are just a week or two within date, and buy them in huge quantities.

They also don't pay any PRS or PPL licences (hence why there's never any live or even background music), which shaves a huge chunk off the running costs.

Yeah hence the negative vibes towards them through this thread and the owner deserves to be bankrupted for this.

Treat the staff with respect. Not going against government advice. Paying his staff properly. Furlough them instead of sacking them and pay the 20%. Theres plenty he could have done but went down the profit before staff route. It won't make any difference but I'll never be back in one or a sports direct or book with virgin again.

The point was that he didn't furlough staff - he fired them, as he wasn't willing to pay furlough pay for the few weeks before the government funding pot kicked in and filled his bank account.

yes but imagine how much money that 20% involves for him no matter how wealthy you think he is......... business is cutthroat sometimes but its only the tough business decisions that sometimes allow a business to survive yes its rotten to those involved but they may have a job to go back to as a result should they choose to work for the little sh#t

Companies a lot smaller and with less in the bank than him managed it, and it was only a case of a few weeks until the backdated furlough pay from the government hit his account.

To do that to so many staff on minimum wage who are the most unlikely to have any kind of savings is just disgraceful.
