THOUSANDS of Christmas revellers dressed up as Santa Claus and partied in the streets of London for an annual festive pub crawl today.
Boozy Brits donned their Father Christmas outfits and hit the capital’s bars for Santacon, which takes place on a Saturday every December.

Santas flooded Trafalgar Square and scaled the Duke of Wellington’s statue near Bank Station as London was painted red and white.
Men and women dressed as Father Christmas made merry with others dressed as elves, snowmen or Christmas puddings.
Revellers also put on their festive clobber and took to the streets of other British cities, including Brighton.
Santas belted out Christmas tunes in pubs across London, with versions of yuletide classics like like Santa Claus is Coming To Town, Jingle Bells and Ding Dong Merrily On High.
New York was among the other cities across the world to host the all-day charity event, which bills itself as “a non-profit, non-political, non-religious and nonsensical Christmas parade”.
