Very interesting vid.
Positive all the way until about 1hr20 when Lord McNally speaks.
The UN directive seems to be paving the way for widespread legalisation should the States Policies change as such.
good to see Drugs being discussed and not just shoved under a carpet as usual.
worth a listen.

It's very disappointing that as soon as an agent from the guberment appears, the bullshit starts flowing.
How that McNally dude could say what he did, without admitting it's the same old shit, and without obviously dismissing all that the various Lords had said is, well. thoroughly predictable, that's what it is.
The subject isn't going away, and the pressure need to be continually applied to these unethical/ignorant people in charge.

Bloody hell! I didn't see that report yesterday, I was still cringing at the other one, thinking me really needs to be a bit more careful! As well as the dissident threat the lovely PSNI are also focusing on tackling drugs - yippee
