Got a letter in the post from the council today to inform me my business rates have gone up 20%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!FFS. Nice one. Now do my customers want to pay 20% extra. I guess not so who has to try to absorb the increase.

Yep thats what I thought. Aparantly its the small business rate relief tailing off. So for the next few years I can expect the same increase or greater each year. Isnt it great running a small business

How do you start a small business?
Start a big one and wait...
