Boris Johnson’s government is proposing new punishments for the “middle-class coke heads” fuelling “gang violence and turf wars”, such as requiring them to surrender their passports when their football team is playing abroad. “Policing and football authorities all support this measure and it is an important step in ensuring that the use of drugs at football is tackled so the majority of fans, particularly those with families, can enjoy themselves without suffering anti-social behaviour and violence,” commented Mark Roberts, the so-called “football lead” for the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC). “The UKFPU (The UK Football Policing Unit) will be coordinating activity with police forces and clubs from the start of next season to ensure that we make the best use of this legislation to target the use of drugs at football,” Roberts added. Commentators have long doubted truly tough action will be taken on illegal drug abuse due to the guilty consciences of Members of Parliament, many of whom are believed to take or have a history of abusing narcotics themselves.
