Brighton getting a load of drug coverage this morning in the media
Interesting that brighton and hove are looking to set up a place where people can take drugs more safely etc.
Not sure how that will go down with people living near one.
Thoughts?

On the radio they were saying they are to be given 'free' drugs (heroin) to use under supervised conditions, how will they control who comes to use them and from how far away.Shirley all the junkies in the UK will head for 'free' drug Brighton - have they really considered this !
Is Ian Holloway running the council now?

I'm sure they have. It has been used in other countries with reasonable success. Besides, we certainly need a change in approach as the current drugs policy is clearly not working.

I do believe they will only be accessible by those who are untreatable for their addictions.

There's a big difference between those that become addicted through a lifestyle choice, and those that are manipulated and coerced by others.

That used to be the treatment for mental illness. And for homosexuality. And for a lot of other activity that was considered "criminal" by "right-minded people".

Please tell me we are still the Credit Card Fraud capital? I'm sure we've held that for a few years now.
