Good Brexit rant though, despite his burst appendix! The trading update is pretty minimalist, then he digs into the pro-EU 'Oxbridge Establishment'.

Tim

I really like Wetherspoons and our local one is very good, And Tim knows the market very well but the market is not going to like that article and will probably drop on this , the company as alot of debt so if interest rates rise they will have to increase prices in the pubs

Tim Martin is incredibly successful he knows what people want I may not agree with every decision but his principal of offering great pubs with good prices is spot on When visiting new city's I always check out the local Wetherspoons as you know you will not get fleeced and they are always consistent with their standards.If Martin left shares would probably tank.

Wonder what they think of Mike Ashley and his majority stake in Sports Direct , Debenhams and the like.

Investor adviser Pirc has said Tim Martin should not be re-elected as chairman because, as founder and a 32 per cent shareholder, he is not 'independent' enough for the job.

Well said

Imho

I blame the Illuminati and the Bilderbergs

Wetherspoons are backing Brexit 100%

To be Great Britain again, independent and self ruling again. I never understood why we had to give ownership of our country away in the first place.For Gods sake one day we built an empire and the next day we can't manage ourselves! Once this is done and dusted there needs to be an enquiry to follow the trail back on who and when gave away our sovereign powers. Successive PMs from Heath, Major, Blair and indeed Cameron to a point all gave us away, WHY???

"they have reduced so many of their European beers"

Well done " Spoons " There's lots of lovely British drinks, we all need to start supporting our country more. Buy British!

Great news!!! Wetherspoons are backing Brexit 100%

Have to say bit disappointed they have reduced so many of their European beers no longer doing Erdinger which was one of my favorites the alcohol free one is probably the best AF you can get, still love their pubs but think he may be taking the anti Europe thing a bit too far?

XD today, seems to have been taken in its stride

[ignoble] 04/10/2018 12:46

Indeed ...

[bountyhunter] 03/10/2018 13:45

absolutely, he single handedly saved the British pub!

[johnwise] 01/10/2018 16:40

Nothing wrong with 'Spoons'. Real Ale and unpretentious pub grub. If you don't like it, and you don't mind paying a fiver for a pint of fizzy European lager - go some place else.
Thank you Tim Martin, for giving us Weatherspoons

[mroalan] 01/10/2018 15:01

The Brexiteer boss of JD Wetherspoon, who used his beer mats to campaign for Leave, is as gung-ho as ever over quitting the EU, he tells RORY ROSS.

Okay, so what would Martin do if he was prime minister?

“I would say: ‘Look guys, we can’t guarantee a deal so no point in pretending we can. Let’s take it step by step and assume no deal.’

“On March 29 next year, we will make sure everyone in the UK is better off: abolish tariffs on imported goods, take control of our fishing – which is 60 per cent fished by the EU – and invest the £39billion that we save from exiting the EU.”
