Thanks for taking interest in our work it was great having you. #IllicitTobacco #IllegalVapes #BrumTS
Thousands more raids and dodgy shops closed. Hundreds of bosses behind bars. Millions in dirty cash seized. That is the fate awaiting the criminal gangs operating in plain sight on our high streets.

Good advice @GetSafeOnline to stay safe when buying motor insurance. #ScamAware #BrumTS
