UK ‘Walking Dead’ city overrun by ‘zombie’ addicts hooked to deadly drug
Welcome to the UK’s “zombie city” — overrun by people addicted to a psychoactive drug with wild side effects.

It has also been the cause of 258 deaths in the UK so far.

And now the city of Wolverhampton has become overrun with people hooked on the dangerous narcotic.

“The authorities check out these incidents but little if anything is being done to prevent it or reprimand the culprits.
“It’s a very unpleasant situation and feels quite worrying and intimidating. I don’t know what’s being done to stop it, but I suspect nothing.
“It’s males, females, young, old, obvious drug addicts and homeless continually asking for money, begging right outside our shop in the middle of the high street, and they don’t take no for an answer.”

Although she admits to seeing Police Community Support Officers attempting to move the drug addicts on, she claims that it is “not very effective”.
Her views were backed up by another local shop worker called Simon Lloyd.
He called the situation “hideous,” adding that “too many people are struggling”.

He said: “The city’s full of crime, stabbings shootings, drugs. Some shop windows have been smashed in, I’m convinced it’s all connected.”
