Julia Lopez MP(@JuliaLopezMP):This half term week, have you noticed how much pricier it seems to book a little break with the kids? Forget breathing space - holiday cottage owners, hotels and B&Bs are all being squeezed with extra taxes, higher bills and more regulations. They’re struggling to make the numbers work without passing the costs on to you - and now Labour wants to charge a 5% tourist tax on the cost of your overnight stay. We have a plan to help bring those costs down, turning that half-term doomscroll on the booking site into the start instead of an affordable adventure.
