There was absolutely no EU regulation that prevented pavement licences etc.. The only restriction that most local authorities insist upon, perfectly understandably, is that the operator demonstrates they have public liability insurance, given they are extending onto a public thoroughfare.

I would have thought the biggest pushback came from the customer who didn't want to sit outside in our shitty weather. Maybe rather than a Brexit its a Climate Change "benefit"?

Thatcher was such a fkn woman, even a decade of the Blair Witch project couldn't put it right (known in footy as a like-for-like substitution)
