Burnham Cuts Business Rates For Pubs And Music Venues. Prime Minister Andy Burnham has announced a 20% cut in business rates for pubs, clubs and live music venues in England from next April. The government says the measure could save a typical pub around £1,100 a year and will cost about £100 million. The tax cut will be funded through a review of business tax reliefs, including those available to some vape shops, and will not apply to the largest live music venues. The policy is expected to be confirmed in more detail in the autumn Budget. It is Burnham's third major cost-of-living announcement since taking office following plans to restore the £2 bus fare cap and scrap VAT on household electricity bills.
