In the British Amazon, sharply increased sales of baseball bats and batons

Sales of baseball bats and batons on the British Amazon website soared yesterday by more than 5,000%. And this is despite the fact that the British do not play baseball. Sales growth is associated with the most violent unrest in England in recent decades.



Yesterday, 7 out of 10 sports and leisure goods, whose sales increased the most, were bits and batons of various kinds. Over the previous 24 hours, their sales grew from 1,756 to 5,149 percent.
