‘UK Poised to Make the Mistake of Ramping Up Ketamine Criminalisation’ “As both major parties compete to appear tougher on crime without considering evidence or consequences, UK drug policy is trapped in a pattern of penal populism.” filtermag.org/uk-ketamine-...

Thorough assessment of 3’,4’-Methylenedioxy-α-pyrrolidinohexiophenone (MDPHP; ‘Monkey Dust’) and other synthetic cathinones under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. Provides robust arguments for why reclassification to Class A was not recommended.

So, further to my 1st @bsky.app post, couldn't help a wry smile adding Drumsheds to my PowerPoint dictionary when spell checking a bespoke lesson to 6th Formers (delivered today). Wore my @theloopuk.bsky.social & Everpress #JustSayKnow T-shirt too! @drumsheds.bsky.social #HarmReduction #DrugsEd

Useful update from the NCA on 'county lines'. It notes that activity is becoming more localised, which leads to the question, when do 'county lines' stop being 'county lines'.

My 1st Bluesky post & delighted by the timing. The Loop granted 1st Home Office licence to carry out year-round in-house rapid drug testing at 2 of the UK’s biggest clubs, Drumsheds & The Warehouse Project. 💜♾️💜 #HarmReduction #TimeToTest #JustSayKnow www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
