The boss of a South West pub group has slammed the government for its handling of the energy crisis and accused suppliers of trying to “profiteer” from the situation.
The Liberation Group runs more than 120 pubs, bars and inns across the West of England and Channel Islands, and is also the parent company of West Country brewery and pub brand Butcombe.
The company previously said its bills were set to double despite government support for businesses, which is set to be slashed from April.
