One of the advisers - Dr Simon Campbell - said he had stepped down because decisions on drugs were being made on political rather than scientific grounds.
I'm glad to see the advisers taking a stand and walking out. The above statement by Dr Campbell sums it up very nicely. Friggin politicians!

The momentum of this needs to be kept going well into next year. Don't let them forget about this.
Write to your MPs, talk to straights.
Edit - Must've been stoned......

She added: "Drugs are controlled for good reason — they are harmful to health. Their control protects individuals and the public from the harms caused by their misuse."
How long can they expect the sheeple to believe this BS.
Firstly, illegal drugs are not controlled drugs. In fact the complete opposite is true. The only regulation the market experiences is from thugs. Some with uniforms and flashing blue lights and others with guns and caring only about profit.
Secondly, if health was an issue, they should listen to the scientific evidence regarding the health implications and create policy based on the evidence.
And prohibit alcohol and tobacco.
Thirdly, see point 1 again FFS, and then ask yourself whether prohibition really helps users or potential users from damaging their own life.
