The hospitality restrictions in Scotland are beyond a joke. Why do we have to close at 8pm with no alcohol. Makes zero sense.. BUT u can drink outside all day until 10pm & use toilet indoors.. WHO’s idea is this. Save Scottish hospitality pls!

- Dear @NicolaSturgeon We all want to drive the virus down & we will work within restrictions BUT to not allow serving alcohol in restaurants is catastrophic. We need these sales to help pay staff & our suppliers. This is serious. Help retain Scottish hospitality & tourism.
- Dear @scotgov & @NicolaSturgeon This no-alcohol rule is an absolute nail in the coffin. Many restaurants are running at a loss, unable to pay suppliers & staff without alcohol sale & no dinner service. In the spirit of staying safe, respecting virus, lives & hospitality,PLS HELP!
- Just for the record pal, Set lunch is £39 for 3 coursesReplying to @bbcdebatenight and @TomKitchinHe makes some fair points but Hard to feel sorry for a guy who's restaurant charge cheapest bottle of wine £45, £11 a whiskey/gin and £75 a set menu lunch, cry me a river

- Thank you FM @NicolaSturgeon for making time to personally speak to me this evening about the crisis facing Hospitality in Scotland. It was a really meaningful conversation and I hope it leads to changes required saving jobs and businesses while keeping the public safe...
- Looks like the famous @scranandscallie Steak Pie and some tasty Scottish Haggis helped the lads after all… 🤫 Well done @ScotlandNT ⚽️ We’re all super proud of you!! 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴 .. #scotland #scranandscallie
- So why can Scotland not keep restaurants open? So frustrating and just doesn’t make sense...
- Just read this thread and all the comments.. Let’s be clear here.. it’s not about me, or politics.. I’m just doing my bit to speak for the hospitality industry and our incredible suppliers in these difficult times..Tom Kitchen is moaning that his posh folk's restaurant is being victimised again cos rich folk can't spread viruses
