Another benefit of Brexit. Work visas too difficult so we’re losing the fabulous Christmas market

'No longer feasible': Leeds German Christmas Market axed this year and hints it may never returnThe Leeds German Christmas Market looks to be gone forever, after Leeds City Council claimed work visa issues mean it is “no longer feasible” to bring the event back to Leeds City Centre. It's well expensive that's why probably. Strange how it seems to work perfectly well in other cities 🧐 Good.

Leeds German Christmas market cancelled for third yearThe Christkindelmarkt in Leeds Millennium Square will be replaced with an ice rink, the council says. Bonfire fireworks cancelled and now the German Christmas market 😔. It’s like every thing that brings tiny pockets of joy is being cancelled. Leeds City Council blamed the closure on the aftermath of the pandemic and rising travel and work visa costs. They said: 'It was mutually agreed with our friends in Frankfurt that it was no longer feasible to bring the German market back to Leeds.' Should be replaced with a good old fashioned British market. 'Five lighters for a pound' & 2 for 1 hoover bags, that sort of thing.
