PHOTOS: Black Friday frenzy goes global – and not everyone’s happy

People don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in France, or Denmark, or South Africa – but they do shop on Black Friday. The U.S. sales phenomenon has spread to retailers across the world in recent years with such force that it’s prompting a backlash from some activists, politicians and even consumers. Workers at Amazon in Germany went on strike for better pay on one of the busiest days of the year.

Some French lawmakers want to ban Black Friday altogether. Consumer rights groups in Britain and some other countries say it’s not always clear how real or big the discounts are. Other critics say it hurts small businesses. Angela Charlton And Claire Parker, The Associated Press Like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter .

Liverpool among “hottest candidates” for Jadon Sancho as Dortmund plan to sell in January

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly prepared to sell Jadon Sancho, with Liverpool among the clubs most interested in the England international. The Reds were unsuccessful in an informal pursuit of Sancho back 2017, when the teenager opted to leave Man City to join Dortmund in a deal worth around £8 million. Initially, the move paid off for both parties, as the player was given an early platform to showcase his phenomenal talent, while the club were rewarded with 13 goals and 23 assists in 55 games across his first two seasons. But while he has contributed six goals and nine assists in just 18 outings so far this campaign, there has been major discontent at the Westfalenstadion. He was suspended by Dortmund in October after returning late from England duty, while Lucien Favre dropped him to the bench for Wednesday’s 3-1 loss to Barcelona—a game in which he scored after coming off the bench—explaining that he needed “players on the pitch who are focused and ready.”
