English football fans are in for a potential treat this Summer if England reach the 2024 Euro semi-finals.
Home Secretary James Cleverly has vowed to keep pubs open to a later time if either England or Scotland manage to reach the semis.
Cleverly hinted of the idea on The Sun's 'Never Mind The Ballots' podcast and has since moved forward with his plans to make it into a reality.
If Cleverly is successful, football and pub fans alike will gain an extra two hours of drinking and socialising if one or both teams make it into the semi-finals.
Meaning the temporary new closing time would see UK pubs close at 1am on the night of the semi-finals.
