Stop The Visitor Taxes Across England’s Regions Destroy Tourism — 8 signatures. Status: rejected.
The proposed introduction of a tourism or visitor levy like regions such as the East Midlands has raised growing concern among businesses, hospitality operators and regional employers who believe the timing could not be worse for the local economy.
The proposed East Midlands tourism tax risks harming hotels, restaurants, events, small businesses and local jobs at a time when hospitality is already under pressure. Adding extra costs for visitors could reduce tourism, weaken regional competitiveness and impact investment across the East Midlands. We believe any tourism levy should require full public consultation, economic transparency and public consent before being introduced.
