they are also looking to bring the law in across the UK as drugs laws aren’t devolved!
A fundamental change in drugs law that would criminalise the act of selling or manufacturing recreational drugs rather than outlawing the substance itself has been proposed by the Scottish government, and is being studied by officials in Edinburgh and London, The Times can reveal.
The proposals are aimed at targeting the growing use of legal highs such as mephedrone, or “meow-meow” — a plant food that can be bought over the internet and which has a similar effect to Ecstasy or cocaine.
Police and ministers are increasingly concerned that criminals are able to stay one step ahead of the law by creating pharmaceutical combinations outside the latest illegal drug classifications.
hopefully keep the stuff out of kids hands I guess, people do seem to be being very silly with “legal highs” at the moment. But then the drugs policy as a whole is evil quite frankly. What can u do ay
the only reason both Scottish and English journalists persist in this lie is perhaps some daft idea that people might be frightened away from it as “its plant food”.
Ironically 11 years ago they were really paranoid in England that devolution would make Scotland try and decriminalise and turn into something like the Netherlands due but it seems to be the opposite..
