After the news about the very pure cocaine in Sussex I have been looking into statistics and publications about the drug screne in the United Kingdoms.
During the last couple of years there have been evidence for nprecedented street purity levels for heroin, crack, powder cocaine and ecstasy.
Samples of cocaine from 2016 showed that top tier cocain, apparently called shine and flake in the UK, are around 70% pure in average. The lower tier of cocains with names as monkey dust (huh? :D), pub dust and student dust were 40% pure in average (prices is also mentioned in several publications, but as far as I know, I am now allowed to list those).
The purity of MDMA have increased drastically, though no numbers are available.
Weed are still the most used and the most available drug in the UK drug market (no surprise here).
RC benzodiazepines are still a hugh cause for concern, which might make it plausible to draw the conclusion that the RC ban have had only minor effects.
Prescription and pharmaceutical painkillers and opiates sold to the illicit drug markets are also reported to be increasing.
One of the proposed reasons for the increase in supply and purity is that gangs attempts to move into each others territories resulting in an increase in violence but also in an increase in competition for the drug market, which makes the gang supply drugs of a better and better quality.
I have found the numbers and reports on the webpage of the International Drug Policy Consortium.
But what do the English Bluelighters say? Do they experience this increase in the purity of drugs?
And I am also interested in the availability of Research Chemicals. Have the ban had any effect at all?
In Denmark, Satudarah from Holland and Mongols motorcycle club (originally from the US) and other gangs (in particular with members with another ethnic origin than Denmark) are have begun fighting for territory and moving into new cities and this war need to be funded, so I expect we might start to see some of the same tendencies with more competition for the drug market and thus better quality og drugs in Denmark in 2017, 2018 and so on.
And do what about Bluelighters from other European countries, can you see some of the same tendencies in your countries?
In terms of harm reduction, this can be both good and bad. Good because better drugs means that they are less diluted with stuff we don't know what are and bad because it might result in more people becoming addicts.
Not related to drugs, but the fighting between gangs mean that they need more members and so they will attempt to recruit mostly young and vulnerable people which is another bad side of this increasing gang activity. I find it...disconcerning...that gang activitiy in general seems to be increasing in Europe.

In my part of the country, we have the worst of everything, we er talking 10% plus drop in quality in coke, amphetamines and heroin, the only thing that is good/better than the rest of Denmark is the MDMA.. So I am also in the wrong place 
lol
i'd just turned 18 and suddenly everyone was just going online and ordering the purest drug i'd ever heard of for a tenner a gram - truly it was the age of Aquarius loooolololol
