And just because it's getting near Christmas... Here's a news release from the Scottish Minister for Community Safety (the drugs misuse brief in Scotland) commenting on the publication of the "Drug Misuse Statistics Scotland, 2007". http://www.scotland.gov.uk/News/Releases/2007/12/18104034 I draw your attention to possibly one of the best ever lines from a politician pontificating on the "drug problem": "This is one of the greatest problems facing us as a nation - it's a long term problem, we need long term solutions - not to look for quick fixes." Some civil servant cheering himself up after the office party perhaps!!??
