If I was in charge of the country (which I’ll never be) I would be pretty radical and make drugs legal.
Thus taking away the criminality, controlling supply and making taking drugs safer.
The war against drugs is unwinnable....

Yes, there's a lot to said for this. At the same time, educate people of how to take safely (including alcohol) and the pitfalls so people have their eyes open.

It’s slowly coming in.....for example the testing of pills at festivals. Just a bit of a journey to go

I'm sure I read something last year that drug dealers were doing reccies of sites and finding places to bury drugs in containers just inside the perimeter using gps thus avoiding the checks, all very hi-tech...

Happened for years mate.....I know that as fact. Billions are made from the drug market each year....to think what good use that could be put to
 
Police bosses spend too much time putting rainbows on their cars and putting officers into high heels or putting on nail polish and not enough time on riot training
It's about time the old bill took control of the streets back
Do we have to wait for a coppers death before something gets done

More disorder in Notting Hill, Kent and Liverpool.........but.....but.....but.......its the ‘pigs’ fault man !!!

Many are truly not giving a **** anymore. Every day we read of lies, corruption and bullshit from our government. We have even witnessed it live on national tv. This filters down through society and people are just sick of it. This country is going to the dogs. It's not the police forces fault. It's the examples we get set on a daily basis that just get swept under the carpet.

No, Bob, that's just an excuse for bad, selfish behaviour

To be fair though mate, I don’t think many who attended the block parties and were chucking things at the OB were thinking it was all to do with lying, corrupt politicians.
More to do with the selfish, ****y ‘me,me,me’ attitude of many in today’s society.
Thank **** I’ll only be about for another 30 years or so max.....I ****ing hate humans
