England grinds to a halt
Schools and businesses are closing; productivity is at an all-time low; the streets are empty as people huddle indoors waiting for some sign of hope. No, it’s not the fallout from George Osborne’s first budget, it’s England v Slovenia in the World Cup.
The nation will come to a halt this afternoon as the entire country tunes in to watch a stuttering England team try to drag themselves out of the group phase. So far in the tournament, the team have looked a shadow of the side that cruised through the qualifying campaign. Now it’s up to a (hopefully) new look team to put in the performance everyone in England is so desperate to see.
The highly-paid, underperforming stars of the England team face the biggest challenge of their careers. One bad decision can be the difference between getting booed off the pitch and being hailed as a national hero. Just ask George Osborne.
