People gather in the smoking area outside the Old Blue Last in Shoreditch, the weekend before new licensing rules come in to effect across Hackney on July 28, 2018 in London, England. Hackney Council has voted to introduce strict new licensing rules which will see 'core' curfews in place for new venues as well as extending the “Special Policy Area”, within which licenses are granted only in exceptional circumstances. Local businesses fear that the new policy, aimed to curb anti-social behaviour and noise, will kill nightlife in East London. (Photo by Jack Taylor/Getty Images)
