English In Use - 'Hey Brit Spender'

A selection of headlines from stories in the news. They use English in a way that you might think is intended to confuse but it's all perfectly clear to the native speaker.

'Hey Big Spender' is the title of a 1960s UK hit record for Shirley Bassey. It has been adapted to 'Hey Brit Spender' for a Daily Star headline on a story that Brits splash out nearly 50 per cent more on Internet shopping than any other nation.
