What is this plant?

Found this angry looking beast in a field of failed Ryegrass. Any ideas what it maybe? Looking at the flowers it's likely a member of the potato family, but those thorns!!

Deepest Essex UK I’m afraid!

Its not thorn apple, there was one growing further over. Thorny Nightshade seems to match from what I can find, has medicinal use apparently

Lots of solanaceae (Potato family) are very poisonous, beware

I reckon it is Sticky Nightshade. It can be grown to reduce PCN levels.
