Proceeding contribution from Nigel Evans (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 March 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Public Houses.
Public Houses
Does my hon. Friend agree that something else that disadvantages a lot of small pubs with high rateable values is the fact that they are unable to put on Sky Sports, and particularly some football matches, because the charges are so prohibitively large? That is another reason why people are staying at home. They watch football there, because they are unable to do so in a lot of pubs, particularly in rural areas.
