The Government has announced a U-Turn on another Budget measure, and given pubs and music venues in England a discount on business rate bills.

Ministers say the financial support is worth more than 15 hundred pounds a year for the average pub.
Hospitality bosses welcomed the move, but want it extended to other businesses too.
