Everton news: Home Secretary Suella Braverman wants new laws after Dele Alli scandal

Home Secretary Suella Braverman is said to want new laws banning nitrous oxide after Everton attacker Dele Alli was spotted with it this weekend, according to the Scottish Daily Mail.

The newspaper has reported in its print edition [11 April, pg 63] that Braverman wants to introduce legislation that will prohibit the so called “hippy crack” due to fears over its misuse and the subsequent health impact.

Alli is said to have returned to the UK as his season with Besiktas is over due to a hip injury that will keep him on the sidelines for 10 weeks.

David Kent wrote: “Although possession of hippy crack is not currently illegal, Home Secretary Suella Braverman wants to introduce new laws banning it entirely for all but legitimate uses after rising concerns over its health effects and links to anti-social behaviour.”

Picking up the pieces

The featured image represents another moment of ignominy for Alli which will not be well received by the club or fans at Goodison Park.

It is simply not the sort of behaviour expected from a professional and especially not from a player who should be striving to show new Everton boss Sean Dyche that he wants to carve out a future at the Toffees.

Whilst Alli will hardly be at the forefront of Dyche’s thoughts at present, you can only imagine the reaction of the manager who is known to demand high standards from his players.

At just 26, the former Tottenham and MK Dons attacker faces a very uncertain future in the game beyond his current loan agreement in Istanbul. It appears to effectively have been cut short due to his latest injury setback, following just 13 appearances and two goals in the Turkish Super Lig this season.

Having penned a two and half year contract on Merseyside last year, Everton will need to pick up the pieces with the wayward Alli but what happens next is very much up in the air.
