West Midlands beer lover Jay Chan is on his challenge to down a pint in all 650 UK constituencies
A beer lover has launched a challenge to down a pint in all 650 UK parliamentary constituencies - and Black Country pubs are set to be his next port of call.
Former MP staffer Jay Chan, 18, has made it his quest to sink a beer in each constituency - and admits the mammoth pub crawl may take him 20 years.
So far he has drunk a pint in ten different places, meaning he has 640 to go on his beer-drinking odyssey, which will cost more than £3,000 on beer alone.
Jay's challenge is part of his wish to protect the British pub industry – which he describes as an “integral part of British life”.
He is calling for the 20 per cent rate of VAT charged on food and drinks in pubs to be scrapped and local heritage pubs to be supported in gaining listed status.
