Price of cocaine has actually gone up a over COVID but yea its a huge issue still, especially for people in their early 20s. So many of my friends do it, including ones who used to be anti-drugs.
As others have said in this thread, hooliganism has been glamorised in recent years due to movies and the popularity of certain clothing brands. Lots of people I went to school with are part of 'firms' now lol
Also, as others have said, people in general have got ruder and 'yobbier' over the last few years for various reasons. COVID has made this worse for some reason, rates of violent crime are up in a lot of places.
