If it were up to me I'd legalise all drugs making them available in chemists. I'd have rooms available in chemists where addicts could inject themselves (as necessary) and I would have everything grown in poly-tents in the UK. This would stop the illegal drugs trade, withdrawing finance for drug gangs, warlords and some aspects of the Taliban. Because the drugs would be sold as reasonable prices it would stop the need for most women to prostitute themselves for drugs, stop the need for most thefts (because most thefts are drugs related), put funds into our economy and protect addicts from cut drugs and unsafe paraphernalia. This would also stop the need for the Police and other agencies wasting millions on preventing the supply of drugs which has always struck me as being like King Canute demanding the tide doesn't come in.

That's assuming they wouldn't jack up the taxes anyway.

Sounds interesing, have to check it out.

Former Home Secretary Jacqui Smith re-examines whether her decision to reclassify cannabis, against expert advice, was the right one. And four years on - if she had to make the decision again - would it be the same one?

5 minutes in we get the old "skunk is not the same drug as the old cannabis" bullshit. Fuck this, another badly informed piece. 5 minutes later they have 12 year olds claiming they saw gun weilding fish jumping out of the tank...woteva

my thoughts exactly,
made me laugh Marijuana is anti social, clearly never been to the dam if we had coffeeshops they would see its just like going to pub except you using a something god put on earth by god not made by man

[Smirks]

Smith waffling on again about how different "skunk" is and how their concern over mental health issues made them go against advice and reclassify as class B. Stop lying you dumb bitch, it's cos Gordon told you to, end of!

[billyriz]

im not sure if i should laugh at this or not some of things their saying are ridiculous
ring them smirks!

[Smirks]

"40%" THC...

Dangers of "skunk" includes "red eye syndrome"...

[Smirks]

God I hate you so much Jacqui Smith, you have no clue. This show is so badly and impartially edited. Why has this excuse for a human being been given a platform to spout this shite?

[billyriz]

glad that guy just said ive never been called to a cannabis fight and he aint doing anyone else any harm

[Smirks]

"Long term cannabis user Henry"
