CHANCELLOR Rishi Sunak will extend the VAT cut on pubs and restaurants until at least June, The Sun can reveal. And the five per cent rate may carry on for the rest of the year as businesses reopen…

You can tick off the days to pubs reopening with our Bar-o-meter.But the Budget this week needs to be Rishi Sunak’s “Hold my beer” moment.

Though he’s done well to support the economy through the pandemic, the moves he announces on Wednesday could massively help the country’s bounce-back, or stall the recovery before it gets going.A freeze or cut in fuel duty would be a similar boost for the white van drivers who have kept Britain going during lockdown and for parts of the country that don’t have good public transport.

People know the nation’s finances are in a mess and the unprecedented Covid borrowing will need to be paid back. But tax rises now will not refill empty government coffers like tax receipts from a booming economy will do.Take advantage of the shot in the arm the vaccine roll-out has given Britain. Help the pubs; help the high street; help businesses to create more jobs, and you’ll be the toast of the nation.GOT a story? RING The Sun on 0207 782 4104 or WHATSAPP on 07423720250 or EMAIL
