Summary

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has said it is quitting the Opec and Opec+ groups of major oil producing nations after nearly 60 years. As people continue to feel the pain at the pumps, energy giant BP has announced massive profits - meanwhile oil prices continue to climb. And with the World Cup just weeks away there's a race to finish Mexico City's airport and stadium before kick off.
