Are you seriously suggesting that the police are in cahoots with property developers who want to regenerate the Market??<br /><br />If the police say that it's a breeding ground for for drug dealing then they I would say they know more about it than you do. Breeding ground means that it's beginning to happen.Dereknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131658095945044290.post-44142979081375769562011-11-07T19:30:03.641+00:002011-11-07T19:30:03.641+00:00@Sourav: "Shepherds Bush Market is a breeding...@Sourav: "Shepherds Bush Market is a breeding ground for drug dealing," says Detective Sergeant Simon Rogers. "The dealers ‘ply their trade’ from business premises which are often a front for their criminal activities."<br /><br />I'm questioning whether that's true. It's not my experience of the market, which seemed just as busy as ever on Saturday, with just as many businesses open. I don't argue that seven people were arrested. I'm just not sure what the police gains from calling the market a "breeding ground" for criminals who "often" operate out of apparently legitimate businesses.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14254483550764562866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131658095945044290.post-47353922156258972662011-11-05T08:16:52.247+00:002011-11-05T08:16:52.247+00:00More good work from H&F Police, really good to...More good work from H&F Police, really good to hear about effective raids like this occurring!<br /><br />To the Anonymous poster, I don't think drug dealers pick locations based on future prospective housing developments. Why not instead show some gratitude of our police acting to remove drug culture from our neighbourhood?Souravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02520609813288202251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131658095945044290.post-56631942630405446942011-11-03T15:05:10.491+00:002011-11-03T15:05:10.491+00:00"Shepherds Bush Market is a breeding ground f..."Shepherds Bush Market is a breeding ground for Drug Dealing" ....<br /><br />Is it? Having lived in the area for 10 years, I'd always thought it was a place for locals to buy cheap cookware and vegetables. Its rebranding as a drugs hub surely has nothing to do with the developer looking to turn it into housing, does it? <br /><br />Hm.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14254483550764562866noreply@blogger.com
