Tons of barbers down the same streets in Croydon. Vape shops are dodgy too I think.Bridlington murder probe victim named

I know a vape shop and have never seen anyone enter to buy anything.

I have a theory. No actual evidence to back it up but it is the only thing that makes any sense to me.
This explosion of Barbers/Vape shops clearly makes zero commercial sense. To just cover the rent and rates alone makes it impossible to cover costs given the lack of footfall.
So I believe an understanding has been reached. Drug cash is clearly being laundered through these shops. And rents get paid. Rates get paid. Keeping commerical landlords, who disproportionately fund political parties, happy. And tax gets paid. Everybody is happy. Hence a blind eye being turned to it all with perhaps the Goverment reaching out to the major players and effectively giving them the all clear. Warned about keeping the violence down and given they are that desperate for income, are willing to effectively legalise this form of laundering. Throw in a few high profile raids on occassion just for public consumption but otherwise, effectively allowing crime to pay.
Because otherwise what actual upside for the UK is there? I believe the same thing also potentially applies to a lot of fast-food outlets as well, especially those that operate out of 'blind' Kitchens.

Imagine a tiny village with 7 or 10 barber shops. Always no customers. Yet the bunch of lads running the barbers all drive new Ferrari's.
Yup.
Yup.

The Turkish barbers in my town have punters queuing out the door at 8.30 in the morning when I drop the wife at work……..I’m assuming it’s not a hair cut they’re queuing for though

They do give a good beard trim in fairness the Turkish barbers. But agree there seem to be a lot of them. Also vape shops are completely empty.

Seconded. I have a big old beard and the turkish barber (I think he's actually Lebanese) does a great job. He calls me "my friend" the whole time as well which makes me feel like maybe I don't look like a paedo after all.

Sounds like the sort who'd be able to provide you with 'something for the weekend sir'.

Trouble with that offer was that I never had anything to use it for.
When it would have been useful the barbers were closed.
