On the ‘Cannabis’ issue, a good start would be to legalise it, along with all drugs. Thus creating vast profits for funding of drug education and other projects without having to ‘defund’ the police. It would also free up police time, stop many youths being convicted and acquiring a police record that may effect their whole lives.
It’s a war that can never be won.....until a government is brave enough to admit that we are always gonna lose

Now that's an issue where I definitely do sit on the fence. Completely see both sides, and think there are logical arguments for and against legalisation. Not quite sure what would be the most net beneficial.

Why the **** has Wiley gone out of his way to ruin his career ? Whether he holds those views or not, to air them on SM like he did is total career suicide....anyone could see that.
Putting aside the responses I just don’t get the whole reasoning behind it all. Utter madness
 
"This morning, the Guardian published a column by Owen Jones, discussing the recent antisemitic tirade of the grime artist Wiley, who has since been suspended from Twitter and banned from Facebook. The column, headlined ‘I joined the Twitter boycott – but racism on social media is just the tip of the iceberg’ condemned Wiley’s remarks, but advised readers not to forget that the real peddlers of privilege are ‘powerful rightwing newspapers’.

So it was perhaps rather unfortunate that the Guardian published the piece with a picture of the wrong man. Instead of depicting Wiley as intended, the publication mistakenly used a picture of the rapper Kano."

per The Spectator

Ooops...

Begum deserves a fair trial as anyone does no matter how obvious their guilt may be. She was clearly groomed, not that that totally negates her wrongdoing.

**** knows how Greta Thunberg has achieved the platform she has but she’s trying to do something positive for the world which sounds commendable enough. Quite why she winds up so many, almost always, middle-aged and old white blokes is a mystery to me.

So what if they are/were both 15? I doubt some **** with a Union Jack twitter profile has thought about it all that deeply somehow.

That’s not the point he is making...but I think you know that anyway.
