Sadness when I’m standing on parliament st and three Americans ask me is it ok to walk down that way to the quays as they heard it was dangerous. Tourism will die some day if something is not done. #irelandtourism

📢 "Let's be clear, this isn't because of a lack of support from the consumer, or a lack of effort on our part - it's because the cost of doing business has spiralled out of control and the Government has refused to take meaningful action to address this."
Today, Paul Lenehan, President of the Restaurants Association of Ireland, addressed the large crowd gathered to support the hospitality industry at our #HospitalityDayofAction

The industry couldn’t have made more noise about the crisis in our sector !@adriancummins .Decision is beyond tone deaf and once again favours the business with scale whilst ignoring the hard working people trying to make a difference to our precious hospitality landscape .

🚨Wait for the spin
We gave consumers a very favorable budget which will put more money in their pockets which will translate to spending in Retail and Hospitality
What part of “the cost base is out of sync for SMEs to make a profit”
SMEs are like busy fools with no margin
Two of the proud authors of this very comprehensive book on Irish food history … about time we told the full story .. congrats @Irish_Cookbooks

The Lord Mayor of Dublin - Fine Gael Cllr James Geoghegan - joined ‘The Tonight Show’ as part of a panel discussion on the recent wave of restaurant closures and its impact on towns, villages and cities - including the capital - last night.
As part of the debate, @GeogheganCllr expressed his and Fine Gael's support for the reinstatement of the 9% VAT rate in Budget 2025 to ensure the survival of independent restaurants, cafés and pubs in Dublin city and throughout the country.

On my short travels stopped @1826Adare last week .. a long time since I had a dish of black sole this good … Wade and Elaine running another superb restaurant which isn’t easy these days … absolutely brilliant
Home made charcuterie to start the meal @ChestnutWCork . I must say it took a few years to get here but I was only saddened by what I had been missing . A true gem of a restaurant and you can’t support small businesses like this enough … bravo !

CEO of the Restaurants Association of Ireland, @AdrianCummins, met with Ministers Jack Chambers and Paschal Donohoe this morning, along with the heads of other hospitality representative groups, to deliver a clear message: #VAT9 on food must be returned in Budget 2025 to fix a broken model and return viability to the industry.
