Brexit is now affecting the UK's supply of Coke & MDMA

Brexit has been affecting supply chains across the UK for the last few months. First KFC and Nando’s ran out of chicken then Wetherspoons ran out of Carling and now MDMA and cocaine are being affected. 

 

It looks like MDMA is becoming more and more difficult to find while the purity of cocaine has dropped significantly too, as the massive shortage of lorry drivers means that it’s near impossible to import grade A sniff from other continents. Here’s the executive director of drugs charity Release had to say about the situation  
 

The availability of MDMA has been severely reduced in some parts of the UK, with people in London describing it as a drought. 

 This could certainly be a result of the reduction of HGVs carrying goods in from Europe, where illegal goods would usually be concealed amongst legal products, and where suppliers have prioritised getting in more lucrative drugs, such as cocaine. 

 Like many other goods that are imported into the UK, we are seeing the supply chain for some illicit substances affected, although as this is an unregulated market it is hard to pin it down… and it is likely the result of a number of different factors.

 Prior to lockdown, cocaine was at the cheapest and purest we have ever seen. During lockdown, purity remained largely high with some geographical variation across the country, but the price increased, which we think was largely a premium on risk pricing due to an increased likelihood of detection rather than any impact on the supply routes.

However, as we have come out of lockdowns and restrictions are easing, the price per kilo and purity are back to pre-Covid 19 levels.If a global border shutdown did not prevent the supply of drugs into the UK, it is likely that suppliers will find a way around (Brexit) too.

 
Well there go, Brexit is not only affecting your food but it’s now affecting your weekend benders. Utter disaster!

Not like we can train our own Albanian dealers either.
