THIS IS HUGE 🍻⁠ ⁠ Pubs in England and Wales will now be allowed to stay open until 5am on Monday so supporters can watch England's World Cup last-16 clash against Mexico all the way to the final whistle.⁠ ⁠ The match kicks off at 1am UK time in Mexico City and isn't expected to finish until after 3am.⁠ ⁠ The government had initially said it would not extend licensing hours any further for the tournament, before reversing the decision on Thursday.⁠ ⁠ Prime Minister Keir Starmer said: "Football might be coming home but we're making sure fans don't have to."⁠ ⁠ The extended hours mean fans can watch the game in their local without pubs needing to apply for a temporary licence extension.⁠ ⁠ #WORLDCUP2026 #Pub #LADbible
