I have a question for the vinters. Do they accept that there are people who are itching to get into their industry who are opening coffee trucks and cafés all across the country? People my age are opening cafés and are itching to get into hospitality - the vintners' industry, which is losing members - and cannot do so because of how much a seven-day licence costs. That system just does not work.
