But red tape is now threatening the future of many bakers’ culinary creations as some councils in England are reviewing their street trading policies, and questioning whether cake sheds should require a licence.
What is this framing by the BBC? ‘Red tape’ is very ideological language. Most street food businesses don’t make anywhere near 1K a week, but I should feel sorry for these people having to follow the same rules as everyone else because it’s twee enough?
In Nottinghamshire, council officials have even suggested they should receive a slice of any money being made.
This is an insane way for the BBC of all institutions to frame a licence fee. If you’re middle class enough, the public broadcaster will frame fucking taxation as robbery. I can see the argument that £1000 annually is excessive for these type of businesses, but this is not the BBC’s framing.
