Pubs - Reopening
Pubs will need to reopen in line with other retail establishments in order to protect businesses and jobs. If not, then the hospitality industry will be decimated beyond repair.
To start with, an 80% capacity based on fire safety regulations, then up to 100% after a couple of weeks, in this proved to be working safely.
Most Pub Companies are still charging pubs rent throughout this period and with no income coming in, this is unsustainable. Even with the Government Grants and Loans, as well as the furlough scheme, it is evident that some businesses will not survive. More Government help will be needed if this situation continues.

Under the influence of alcohol people's behaviour deteriorates and the risk of viral transmission is too great.
