  1. Don’t blame them. Shitty devolved gov decisions. Welsh will do it to where I live (tbh they normally do to a degree, but they’ll be far more).

  2. If they want to come and spend their money, head on over, we not going to stop you!

    Welcome to England. You may lack Iron Bru but we can accommodate some from North of the wall.

  3. “Hoping to contain the spread” of the Omicron variant.

    So people move around clubbing isn’t going to spread it?

  4. How the tables do turn from when the police were telling the English to fuck off at the borders, you’d never hear the end of it off Nicola if they’d remained open and everyone else flooded in but I can’t say I blame em enjoy nightclubs while you can

  5. Get vaccinated and do an LFT before coming over and hope everyone else does the same. COVID is basically endemic now, but with a new strain that appears more virulent but less morbid, we are at the point where taking sensible precautions is more justifiable than lockdowns and serious restrictions.

  6. See also half of South Wales decamping to Bristol & Bath for NYE. As a Bathonian in exile in Bristol I am 200% certain that all the city centre pubs, bars and clubs are gonna be raking it in…

  7. I thought there was more to Hogmanay than just a standard NYE night out? Some Scottish people on here have been saying they care more about it than Christmas Day.

  8. Come one come all. I feel awful for the hospitality businesses in Wales and Scotland, but good to see some people in England will benefit, and some of our celtic brethren will not have their celebrations ruined.

  9. This has to be one of the biggest heap of pish I’ve ever read – but as it’s in the Telegraph then that’s fairly common.

  10. In other words, pubs/bars will be open as usual in England and all Brits are welcome to visit them, be they from Newcastle, Glasgow or Berwick-upon-Tweed

  11. As someone from Blackpool, well known piss-up destination for Scots, there are pros and cons.

    Cons: vomit everywhere, fighting, getting glassed at random.

    Pros: getting sucked off in a bus shelter by a girl from Dundee in exchange for half a kebab.
