I've been banging on about this since 1997, when I started my own political party called www.sosparty.co.uk. I remember people used to look at me as if I had lost my marbles whenever I spoke about my drug policy. I just hope all those people who scoffed at my policy of distributing heroin to addicts via the NHS see sense and acknowledge it's a sensible and practical solution to reducing crime in our city.
