Said going to pubs is safe and nobody had caught it in one, and tried to stay open.

Every time I see a picture of him it makes me think that he is a slightly faded ex member of 70's no marks Shawodawaddy

The ultimate plastic patriot. Hope he's the first 'known' name to snuff it. Cunt.

Basically told his staff to fuck off and find a job at Tesco.

Same people who claim to have strong feelings about Richard Branson or George Soros also tend to ask what is wrong about him or Aaron Banks.
I'd say they want some of the old Pickle medicine up them.

Bloke I work for when there is no touring has put all his trucks up for auction and is closing the company, he is lucky as our of a fleet of 9 only one is leased.

They aren’t paying their staff beyond when the pubs closed until they get the government grant. The sort of thing hopefully people remember when pubs reopen.

A lot of younger people were piling into him on twatter, saying what an absolute cunt he is.
And while this may be true, they’ll be the first ones back in his pubs when they open up again. I’m compiling a little list of the cunts that won’t be getting my business again when all this is done.

The bloke has always come across as a massive cunt.
He made all those big deals about how his pubs would never have a TV and then IIRC as its years back now had them installed halfway through a World Cup. He also insisted there would never be music in any of his pubs, but I have definetely 100% heard music at one in Bristol and it all started when a tiny pop up pub opened nearby where music was their main draw.
Any principals he used to bang on and on about seem to completely disappear as soon as profit us involved - no problem with that at all, apart from the banging on about those principals so vocally in the first place.
His business can quite easily pay those wages before the grant arrives, and can also see them riding this fairly easily whilst all the little pubs go out of business over the coming months, long term he's probably weighing up the gains already.
Lovely bloke...

He's a bit of a massive cunt. Clever businessman.
Cheap beer, cheap steak, I'll be back to give the cunt some money.
Same as Richard Branson. He's a REALLY massive cunt. However if his aeroplanes are the cheapest direct flight I'll be giving him some more wealth. Same with his trains.
That's how it goes.
Get the tube on occasion?
You'll be giving THIS HERE cunt some £.

Got no respect for him until the day his pubs serve a warm breakfast.

I take the opposite view but then I am lucky enough to have stumbled accidentally into a profession where I can afford to pick and choose where I spend my money. Spoons, Amazon, Virgin, Vodafone, Sky etc. can fuck off.

Spoons breakfasts are great value for the money.
