NEW YORK, April 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Coffee Bros., a U.S.-based specialty coffee roaster, is urging the federal government to immediately exempt coffee from the newly imposed tariffs that threaten to disrupt the American coffee industry, drive up prices for consumers, and undermine long-standing international supply relationships.The petition, titled "Exempt Coffee from Tariffs: Protect American Small Businesses and Preserve Coffee Quality," has begun gaining traction online, urging action to protect a critical industry that supports more than 2.2 million American jobs

Pensioners’ rights campaigner Dennis Reed visited Downing Street on Tuesday to present a Change.org petition supported by over 117,000 people urging the Government to use the Spring Statement as an opportunity to uprate the state pension tax threshold.Within the next two years, the state pension will rise to a level where it exceeds the personal allowance tax threshold, meaning that many more pensioners risk paying tax on their state pension, having already been taxed on their income during their working years.Speaking from the doorstep of Number 10, Dennis said:“660,000 older people were brought into the tax system last year because the tax thresholds are frozen, and as long as they are frozen, more pensioners will be brought into the system. It’s just outrageous, you contribute tax and national insurance throughout your working life; to then have it taxed again is a double whammy.”. Dennis also criticised the Government’s approach to the Spring Statement more broadly; drawing a link between what he perceives as the Government’s treatment towards the elderly along with many other vulnerable groups. Asked what message he would send directly to the Chancellor, he said:“Stop talking all the time about the only people that matter are working families. There are loads of other people in this society that aren’t working families. There’s older people, who’ve had their winter fuel payment taken away
