Scottish Nationalists propose decriminalising drugs

[harrybarracuda]

"We've fucked up our country with drugs so let's pretend independence will stop us being a useless bunch of cuntos who aren't fit to run a sweet shop".

The SNP has unanimously backed decriminalising the possession and consumption of controlled drugs.

Activists at the party’s annual conference in Aberdeen supported the move, branding the current Misuse of Drugs Act, which dates back to 1971, as “not fit for purpose”.

Anne McLaughlin, the SNP’s Westminster candidate for Glasgow North East, spoke out about the need to decriminalise the possession of drugs.

She said: “Until we are independent, let’s call for the powers to be devolved so we can fully debate how best to tackle our drugs problems in our country.”

There were a total of 1,187 drugs-related deaths in Scotland in 2018 – the highest number on record.

This is the highest total in the European Union, and triple that of England and Wales.

"There were more than 70,000 drug deaths in the US in 2017 but the rate of 217 per million of the population is now marginally lower than Scotland's rate (218).

There were 3,756 deaths relating to drug poisoning in England and Wales in 2017, a rate of 66 deaths per million. The rate in Northern Ireland is about 75 per million, with 136 deaths in 2017".

I just hope they're all Catholics, then the kids will be safer.

1,187 deaths nationwide but practically all in the central belt area.
