Forget Brexit — the great UK/EU divide is a question of men’s briefs.
As ever, our Italian, Spanish, German — you name it — counterparts are confident populating the continent’s pebbled coves and sandy beaches with their bare inner thighs, reclining in skimpy Speedos (their girlfriends not, for the record, usually far away).

Unless you’re David Beckham, that is: now Victoria Beckham has shared a series of photos of the family’s recent holiday, which included her husband’s tight red swimmers.
