The Antic Hospitality Group, which runs a bunch of pubs across east and south London, has gone into administration. The company can no longer deal with its debts, meaning it either has to sell off its assets, pay everyone off, or liquidate the business. The Standard reports that a number of the Antic pubs have been having difficulties since the pandemic.

And that’s exactly why the construction of the new Western Harbour Tunnel is big news for Sydneysiders – the stretch of tunnel will offer motorists a free-to-use route beneath Sydney Harbour, with an opening date slated for 2028.
