England's World Cup exit good for the nation's health
25 June 2014
England's early exit from the World Cup isn't all bad news as an infographic looking at its economic impact shows there could be some positive news for the nation's health. Consumption of alcohol is expected to drop by 67% and fans are likely to spend £12m less on junk food as a result of the team's early departure. While the infographic, produced by Real Business Rescue, shows publicans will suffer, fewer late nights and lower alcohol consumption could make for a more productive workforce.
