In Bristol, Ann catches 3 passengers with 87 kilos of tobacco worth nearly £11,000. It's the largest amount officers have seen for years, but the passengers claim it is all for their own consumption. In Cornwall, the officers on Customs cutter Searcher have the power to board any vessel, but when a sailor refuses to let them onto his yacht, the crew board it anyway and swab it for drugs.
In Gatwick and Bristol Airports in England customs agents check baggage and travellers to uphold allowances and prevent illicit activity and substances from entering the UK.

@@acornsucks2111Nothing illegal? I hope you're trolling 😂😂 Lying on his declaration card about how many cartons he has... That is a legal document and providing false information or omitting to any is a criminal offense. Not paying duty on said undeclared tabackky haul, Illegal Smuggling... illegal. He was most definitely planning to sell 3/4 of that haul, because anyone that got through without getting caught with the extra cartons would do the same sht. This isn't a new gig🤣 they took the risk under the assumption they wouldn't get into any trouble and would probably just have to lose the loot.

For non EU taxed ciggys it is usually 200 pieces you can bring in tax free. If assumed one cigarette without packaging is weighing 1g he brought in 87000 ciggys. Which is 86800 above his duty free limit, quite a lot. Even if you smoke a carton a day, which, I think, is 20 pieces, it still is 4350 days which still would take around 11 years. That is far gone for personal use I'd reckon. @@acornsucks2111

Another nugget of evidence: he had NO other "smoking" paraphernalia on him [though not detailed, I expect he had NO rolling papers, cigarette lighters or matches, (obviously did not have a cigarette rolling machine)]. If he truly smoked "like a chimney" [USA slang for a heavy smoker], he would have been able to demonstrate rolling a cigarette like a professional.

It’s a disgustingly greedy money grab and the amount that cigarettes are taxed in the UK is borderline theft, i don’t blame anyone trying to sneak in cigarettes as they should. I would support the entirety of smokers in the UK sneaking them into the country. This is a very similar example of what started the revolutionary war between the US and UK lmao. It’s getting pretty close to being justifiable at this point.

You do understand most smokers who roll their own use machines that dont fit in your pocket to roll them, and we dont actually roll them like joints - right? As for patches and gum, I was unaware they showed a full body scan on air checking his body, and even a full scan showing the entire contents of his bags. We also didnt see him urinate or take a dump, does that mean he is a human marvel who never uses the bathroom, or that maybe the show is only showing snippets from the course of just a few hours and quiet possibly he did those things off screen?

@JeffSmith-eq3kc 2 жыл бұрын

Yepp and a rolling machine is far more efficient so getting 40 cigarettes per 50g package is very plausible. A standard cigarette has 1g so saying 80-100 would be standard is simply untrue when major manufacturers would get 50. It's a lot of tobacco but split between 3 people it's nowhere near the amount they made it out to be. They could very easily smoke that much in less than 2 years. If they were really that inexpensive he could have saved himself a tremendous amount of money buying for personal use in that quantity.

A standard cigarette has roughly 1 gram of tobacco in it so that's 87,000 cigarettes. For that to last a year, 3 people would have to smoke roughly 80 cigarettes per day. That's 4 packs a day. It's and insane amount of cigarettes but it's not as outrageous as I originally thought.

The guy used to give you multitude of receipts and I would drive back to Calais, leave the van there and put the max allowed into a hold all and go back & forth across the Channel as a foot passenger all weekend, dumping the packets in the B&B. At the time it was only a pound to cross as a foot passenger each way. Customs couldn't do anything about it. Used to do it twice a month and the money was staggering. 😁

Wake up. If you are entering a country in your mobile "home", whether it is a camper van or a boat, you can expect it to be searched by customs officers because of legal restrictions on what you can bring in. If they did not do so, the country would have an even bigger drug problem than it has. It would also lose tax revenue on imported goods, which means that other people would have to pay higher taxes. Your argument makes no sense, and there is reason to suspect that you are anti-law enforcement and may have a tendency to be a habitual law breaker of some sort.

@someguy4915 2 жыл бұрын

@@coast2coast00 That is not because it 'is part of your home' but simply because police need 'probable cause' to search a vehicle, bags and/or frisk a person. They cannot just walk up to random people and start frisking them or entering random homes because they feel like it. If however they stop a camper and smell cannabis from outside, that can be probable cause to search inside, whether you call it a home or not, police calls it a possible crime scene and is allowed in under probable cause. If the police stop a truck, it is usually because of poor driving/driver being tired and sleep deprived due to driving too long. So there would be no reason to search the truck at all because you won't find a more rested driver there... If police stop a truck because they have intel that it is carrying illegal items they can absolutely search it. It would be hilarious if a drug smuggler could just hide their dope in the sleeper cab of a truck and be impervious to law enforcement due to your idea that anything you call home cannot be searched...

Try as I might, I searched and could find no information on 'Paul Brady' (or any person) who was apprehended by customs at Gatwick (or any UK airport) and then refused to poop for 48 days. Strangely, though, there's actually a plethora of information about a man from Brixton, London (Lamarr Chambers) who was arrested after a police chase and then refused to poop for 47 days. Eventually police dropped the charges against him over health and safety concerns. There are NUMEROUS articles about Mr. Chambers and not a single one about "Mr. Brady". I'm leaning towards the customs story being fictional, and adapted from the actual story of Lamarr Chambers - it did say it was a reconstruction, so fair play. Only thing is that the customs officer seemed pretty emotional over the whole thing. Maybe he's just a good actor... I don't know. It seems implausible that there would be two people on "bowel-movement-strikes" for 47/48 days at all... much less a situation where one person becomes infamous for it, and the other gets nary a mention anywhere on the Internet.
