Yes actual crack is pretty popular among that demographic, the UK has a very good relatively low cost supply of cocaine.

The classic combo is Afghan buj + crack but synthetic opioids are starting to make an appearance now the CIA isn’t producing heroin anymore.

It’s nowhere near as bad as the west coast of the US obviously, that’s a whole other level.

I would normally use a different word than crackhead but I thought I’d use the internationally recognised term

Interesting. I always thought it was opioids that were the main problem in Europe.

Wastewater analysis shows cocaine is consumed massively ... in the financial district of London.

No, it's metric. Our schools are flooded with 30cm rulers. You'll see kids as young as 8 with 330ml drinks. Some even count in decimal - there is no end in sight
