World Cup

How the UK economy benefits from the Three Lions

As the Three Lions continue through this year's World Cup, as does the spending of England fans on everything from match time food and drinks to new TVs to enjoy the experience to the full. As figures from VoucherCodes.co.uk show, projected retail turnover as a direct result of the campaign in Russia is expected to have been £1.9 billion leading up to the dramatic win against Colombia. If England somehow make it to the final, this sum rises to a very healthy £2.7 billion boost to the UK economy.
