Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 January 2013. It occurred during Opposition day on Pub Companies.


Pub Companies

Let me respond to the hon. Gentleman’s first point before he makes a second one. Using his logic, we could eventually have only 15 pubs left and he would say that was a great success because only 15 have closed this week. As the overall stock reduces there have obviously been fewer closures. Nevertheless, there are now 2,500 fewer pubs than in 2010.
