Doctor please.....

Doctor can you help me please

I'm laying on the floor

I need a glass of something

Like you gave me once before

For those reading this in 2020, the broken links refer to a campaign by Barnardo's. The photo is from one of their 'stories'. 

Safe consumption rooms are a start in a health based drugs policy, which needs devolved. The Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 is also unsurprisingly no longer fit for purpose and deals only with the criminalisation of those involved with controlled drug misuse. 

The petition clearly fell on deaf ears.

Today you have Twitter and Facebook. Do your stuff. 🥰
