世界旅行和旅游理事会警告说,高税收和投资不足阻碍了游客访问联合王国,可能使旅行和旅游业在未来十年内损失高达600亿英镑的国内生产总值。 The World Travel and Tourism Council warns that high taxes and insufficient investment are discouraging tourists from visiting the UK, potentially costing the travel and tourism industry up to £60 billion in GDP over the next decade. 这些因素包括增加国民保险、高增值税率和为免签证访问者发放新的10英镑数字许可证。 Factors include increased National Insurance, a high VAT rate, and a new £10 digital permit for visa-free visitors. WTTC还指出,与全球竞争者相比,访问英国的资金不足。 The WTTC also notes that Visit Britain is underfunded compared to global competitors.
