The Great London Gang Census: Counting Crooks with a Cuppa
Ah, London. City of Big Ben, fish and chips, and... a surprising number of dodgy geezers slinging narcotics on the side? That's right, mates, the question on everyone's mind (besides where to find the best pasty) is: just how many gangs are running amok in our fair city?

Now, getting a definitive headcount on these fellas is trickier than dodging a rogue pigeon in Trafalgar Square. These organizations ain't exactly sending out RSVPs for their next "business meeting" (which definitely doesn't involve knees being broken in a back alley).
However, estimates suggest there could be around 2,800 gangs kicking about the UK, with a good 60% of those loveable rogues specializing in the delightful world of drugs. That translates to a whole lot of chaps with questionable fashion choices and even worse business plans.
