Pubs are suffering under a mountain of state-imposed burdens

Everyone has a favourite pub. It might be one you go back to on holiday or it could be at the end of your road. It could be a stone’s throw from the office (City AM is blessed in this regard) or one that’s still going from your uni years.

The City AM Toast Awards recently lined up a selection of the Square Mile’s most treasured boozers and crowned The Rising Sun on Carter Lane as the best, but the shortlist was full of fabulous drinking haunts.

Most of my favourite pubs can be found on the Isles of Scilly, starting with the Turk’s Head on St Agnes (if you know, you know)........
