In UK A new problem has arisen: after pubs and restaurants were overrun by rats due to forced closures due to the lockdown, we realized that the Brexit caused some staff shortages in pubs. So much so that, now, someone is calling for the concession regulations on entry visas to be relaxed because more migrant workers are needed.

Tim Martin himself, the head of the Wetherspoon pubs and well-known Brexit advocate, has actually added his voice to the chorus of those demanding that rules on work visas be changed with regard to migrants from the EU. Among other things, the problem of the lack of workers due to Brexit was widely prophesied long ago.

According to Martin, the UK should make it easier for less skilled EU workers to enter Britain. And many other pub and restaurant managers have also confirmed to the Telegraph that it is so difficult to find staff for this sector, that often at lunch they are forced to close for lack of employees.

Martin does not go back on his positions on Brexit or immigration, but admits that the UK has a low birth rate. For this reason a immigration system reasonably liberal and controlled by those they elected, distinct from the EU system, could lead to benefits for the country's economy.

According to the UKHospitality trade body, there would be a deficit of about 188 thousand workers. And all because of the blockades imposed by the government. To this we must then add the fact that many workers, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, have preferred to return to their countries of origin.

Also due to all these reasons, many English pubs and restaurants are still closed. In light of these facts, the All-Party Parliamentary Beer Group has asked the government to consider lowering customs duties (including on draft beers), VAT or commercial rates for pubs and breweries. Furthermore, it seems that the Treasury is also reviewing the tax on alcohol and labor.
