Pubs in England and Wales could stay open until 1am during next summer's World Cup semi-finals and final. The catch? It only happens if a home nation reaches the knockout stages.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood announced the proposal on Thursday and didn't hold back. 'Our nation's pubs are going into extra time,' she said. 'The party won't end before the final whistle is blown. And in a personal capacity, I would like to add: It's coming home.'
