“No Drugs!” reads a sign at a pub in Birmingham – or at least only if you "spend a penny" it seems.

Police discovered £5,000 worth of marijuana being grown in the women’s’ toilets at the Laffin Few in Tipton, the Birmingham Mail reported.

Ironically, the discovery was made within the vicinity of a sign displayed on the wall of the pub that stated: “No Drugs! Anyone caught will be banned for life.”

But despite the warning, more than 110 cannabis plants were found growing during a surprise raid on Tuesday.

Tipton Green Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) tweeted: “Shame this establishment didn’t heed its own sign huh? Licensee to be dealt with.”

Officers removed the drugs in order for them to be destroyed but no arrests were made.

A West Midlands Police spokesman told the newspaper: “At around 1.45pm officers located around 110 cannabis plants at the Laffin Few pub in High Street, Tipton.

“The plants have now been removed and seized.

“Nobody has been arrested at this stage – officers will be speaking to a man concerning the matter.”
