00:00I can see why maybe, but I don't see it personally.
00:08Do you think it could affect people visiting pubs?
00:11Oh absolutely. I think if people are expecting higher price at busier times,
00:18then it will definitely affect where people go.
00:21I work in the industry actually, so in the supply chain of beer,
00:26I believe that everyone should pay the same for the same product.
00:30At all times.
00:32Do you think it will deter people from going to the pub?
00:34Potentially. I see why they would want to push that,
00:41because of creating a busier week all round and getting people to the pubs.
00:50Although I think there's other ways of doing that.
00:53It should be an equal spread if they're providing a service.
00:56It has to be an equal spread across the range.
