Rishi Sunak column: Encouraged to see Bedale Market Place so busy while doing my Christmas shopping

AS Christmas nears, never has it been more important to support our local independently-owned small businesses, especially in the retail sector. After such a difficult 2020, the next fortnight is an opportunity for shop owners to get their tills ringing again and for the rest of us to back our local economies and the High Streets which lie at their heart. Last Friday, the day before Small Business Saturday, I spent time in Bedale Market Place, talking to shop staff and owners – and, importantly, doing some shopping! Many staff were just back from being on furlough again and were so happy to be welcoming customers once more. And despite the weather being absolutely miserable I was encouraged to see the Market Place busy.
