Dele Alli's hippy crack shame: Football star, 26, is surrounded by laughing gas canisters with a balloon in his mouth as friends party with £215 tequila, Jamaican tonic wine and high-strength chewing tobacco

Former England footballer Dele Alli has been pictured with a balloon in his mouth surrounded by laughing gas canisters.

A picture shared on social media claiming to be inside a flat in Salford shows the 26-year-old and several friends sitting around a table laden with giant bottles of nitrous oxide, also known as 'hippy crack'.

The table is littered with a variety of other party-related items, including £215.00 Clase Azul tequila, Magnum - a 16.5% alcohol tonic wine from Jamaica - and Siberia 'extremely strong' snus, a form of chewing tobacco.

Also visible is a bottle of orange fizzy Lucozade, a can of fizzy drink, a bottle of 7 Up, and a packet of Evian water alongside several empty balloons and a pack of playing cards.

While possession of laughing gas is not currently illegal, Home Secretary Suella Braverman wants to introduce new laws banning it entirely for all but legitimate uses after rising concern over its health effects and links to anti-social behavior.
