    In addition to the latest list of closures the Tyburn at Marble Arch has gone. Apparently the whole block is due to be demolished and redeveloped. This is one JDW I certainly won't miss.

    Breaking news, Aqualung has rated a JDW lower than me, I need a re-think .

    I marginally thought this was the best of the three but the higher prices knocked it back. I really couldn't understand how nobody had given the Nag's Head a 10. It's very basic but that's a plus for me!

    A lot of the pubs famous for good beer and lots of handpumps seem to ignore the interiors.Seems to be if its successful why change. I found it very basic and still give it an 8.Bumping into Moby and Steve there did not did not influence my low rating.

More importantly what do the staff who have to deliver all this propaganda to the punters make of it all especially when their own outlet may get closed down at short notice.

    He's preaching to the converted to some extent. Most of his daytime customers, the ones most likely to read the mag, fit the Leave demographic perfectly. The younger evening crowd are more likely to be in the Remain camp but I doubt many are aware there even is a magazine. I do feel for his staff, especially those who get to work here courtesy of the EU. Their employer doesn't want them working here, but, in London at least, couldn't operate without them.
