Top British chefs: our industry is on its knees

Newsnight

Available for over a year

Tonight four of Britain's leading chefs including Tom Kerridge and Yotam Ottolenghi tell Newsnight their industry is in such dire straits their restaurants are no longer making a profit, and if the Govt doesn't cut VAT the restaurant trade won't survive. And as Keir Starmer hits back at Tony Blair's criticism of him as having 'no coherent plan', Katie Razzall asks the cabinet minister who has served under both prime ministers, and alongside Andy Burnham, whose side he is on.
