A campaign has been created and supported by hospitality professionals across the UK, calling for a review of the 10pm curfew that’s crippling venues, jobs and the economy.

Venues are already reporting a drop in revenue of over 60% since the curfew was enforced.

The campaign states that the Government need to U-turn on this disastrous policy before it's too late.

An urgent Parliament debate has been secured at 10.30am today regarding #cancelthecurfew.

More press and MPs are their throwing weight behind this - either scrap the 10pm limit or give up the halfway house 'compromise' approach, close down properly and support the largest private sector employer in the country.

The campaign has also created an event: #CancelTheCurfew - Silent Protest, running from 3 Oct at 22:00 to 4 Oct at 22:15.
