Next time Jonathan Dimbleby feels like mooting the idea of decriminalising hard drugs, perhaps he should take a walk beneath the stairwells of some of our inner-city housing estates. There, he won’t find the junkies gently sneezing — as he tells us he did when he snorted a line of cocaine in the U.S. in the late Sixties. He is more likely to find that they set on him with a knife in a state of psychotic rage. The connection between cocaine, mental illness and violence is indisputable.

Even without the drugs, most housing estates would still be a shithole so it's a moot point. You take away all the drugs, ppl are still gonna piss all over the place and cause trouble. It's not drugs that make these people act like retards, they're just retarded from the off.
 
I'm unfamiliar with the Daily mail. Does anyone know what is the level of influence and popularity of this tabloid?
 
They have this much influence...

Branson isn't expecting to convert David Cameron or any other politician overnight: "I talk to a lot of politicians and, individually, almost every single one of them knows that this is the right approach. They all are just terrified of the Daily Mail. If the Daily Mail changes its approach, the politicians will change their approach. If the Daily Mail don't, they won't." The situation is "sad" he says.

And "it is the United Kingdom's second biggest-selling daily newspaper after The Sun".
