Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin warns price of pints could hit £10

Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin, has warned drinkers to brace for the possibility that the cost of a simple pint of lager could one day rise to £8 or £10.

Talking to LBC radio, the 68-year-old detailed how there were 'no limits' to ever-growing prices amid the hard-hitting cost of living crisis.

Tim revealed that the price of a pint will 'quite probably' reach £8, and said "There are certainly some pubs that do that, and it’s gone up more than you would imagine. Around the country – I go around the country visiting pubs and talking to our pub managers – whereas it’s not a fiver in our pubs, it’s a fiver in a lot of pubs from Penzance to Wick at the moment.
