Cops believe they have disrupted a major illegal enterprise

Two people were in custody after Bedfordshire Police seized more than £1 million of drugs on Thursday, May 15.

Officers who stopped a vehicle near Junction 11 of the M1 at noon found strong 'skunk' cannabis with a street value of about £961,000.

Then just six hours later a raid on a property in the Streatley area, near Luton, resulted in £100,000 of cocaine being seized.

Two people have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply drugs and were being interviewed by police.

Det Sgt Phil Walters, of the Serious and Organised Crime Squad, said: 'We believe we have disrupted a major enterprise and prevented a huge quantity of illegal drugs ending up on our streets.'

Should worldwide tours of the Olympic flame be abandoned to stop giving protestors an easy target
Yes, it's a pointless stunt anyway and would not be missed
No, you can't give in to bully tactics from any quarter
Bring on more protests, they are more entertaining than the sport
