Walking into my hotel last night in Manchester, there was a group of 15 or so men stood blocking the entrance, smoking, laughing, being generally raucous. It’s always like this on a football weekend. I had to walk through that crowd of blokes to get to the reception desk

I’m in America and it’s very interesting how news about the UK is reported without the bias of British newspapers or the nervousness of the BBC. Britain’s petrol crisis is a direct consequence of Brexit – this is just an accepted fact everywhere (except where it’s happening).
