KEEP A CLEAR HEAD

I am sure I will not be the only person in York who will not be too
concerned that Mr Clements of the Legalise Cannabis Alliance will not
be standing as a prospective MP in the General Election.

His plea to the people of York to carefully think how they vote will,
hopefully, fall on deaf ears because I think most voters will go to
the polls with a reasonably clear head and not be spaced out by the
effects of cannabis, a classified drug.

I detest anyone who pushes the use of a substance that is so
mind-bending. Can't Mr Clements get enough kicks from alcohol which
causes enough problems in society?

Most criminals who burgle our houses and commit all nature of crime
started off on so-called soft drugs, i.e. cannabis, and progressed to
heroin.
