Opinion – Drugs among middle-class professionals to be investigated to combat violence, Sajid Javid announces – via Independent

Surely the UK Home Secretary is promising ‘too little, too late’ on drugs. He’s a Conservative Home Secretary, try to imagine a Far-Left Labour Home Secretary – free drugs for all recreational users? Thoughts?

  1. Dr Alf is right,drug taking amongst middle class professionals has been rife for years.
    Cocaine ,favoured by “Masters of the Universe”,the Glitterati and striving London based professionals is as commonplace as coffee.
    In the “Wolf of Wall Street” the junk stock operator Jordan Belfort played in the film of the same name starring Leonardo di Caprio writes in his book of the same name that he was encouraged to do so by his Wall Street mentor so that he could “dial faster” as a precursor to selling more shares to more people and thus earning more sales commission.
    Belfort in turn encouraged his boiler room salespeople to do the same thing until the authorities put a stop to his malfeasance and jailed him for fraud and breaches of securities laws,money laundering and swindling .
    In expensive dinner parties people who used to be hippies in the 1960’s now relive their misspent youth by eating cannabis baked into cakes whilst quaffing top of the range wines and snorting cocaine.
    What is needed from Javid is not a belated investigation but hard evidence about the effects of these practices so that people who see themselves as clever and above the law can be educated to lead drug free lives.
